Lockdown Row





 I thought I'd better get out for a row today, as the wind is below 15 knots, even though the sky was grey and the weather chilly. 

It was low tide and the swamp in front of the yacht club looked like hard work.  The safe harbour ramp was quiet so I drove round there and launched straight off the trailer.  

There was quite a stiff westerly blowing.  Rowing into it was hard work.  When I stopped rowing, the boat was drifting backwards at about 1.7 knots.  My GPS told me I had an average of 2.6 knots over the hour.

It was a good outing.  I can refine the process.
