Was doing some surfing for Wooden boat builder content ideas when I came accross this interesting article with some astounding photos. Check it out, heres the link:
I've heard about an eskimo roll with a kayak, but isn't this above and beyond the call of duty? (I didn't see any swimmers in the water, which is where I'd be tempted to go if I was on the boat.) I noticed the pedestrians on the bridge disappeared about the time the tug hit the bridge, and the camara person seemed to back up some as well! There are no guarantees with wind, water, or weather. I guess we all have to roll with the flow.
I was thinking maybe we have a new olympic event possability here now that kayaking is in. "The towboat under the bridge roll event" Could bring in lots of spectators. Of course the conditions would have to be just right. What do you think?
