Great video Bobby. Missed you at the finish this year. As a single blade Kruger paddler always great to see a high level kayaker with a canoe paddle. If I ever come over the dark side and paddle a kayak I would do use the same paddle strategy as you. - MicroTom
I did finish. It went well. Did some exploring along the way. Also spent the night on a Chickee in the middle of the Everglades. Headwinds almost the entire time. Over all it was a great trip.
I used Your suggestion to bring aquaphor, that was a great idea! I used it almost every day :)
I love the Aquaphor. I'm happy you liked it.

Hey, Tom. A single blade is my favorite way to paddle.
Great vid.... are you going to film the race?
Maybe some short videos along the way. It's hard to stop when racing.
You doing the Suwannee 230 this year?
Yes, c2 class
I notice you didn't mention a dry suit. Is that required and any reason you wouldn't carry one for poor conditions?
Sailors use dry suits in the race. Never used one, warmer conditions with all the movement. I feel like I'd overheat.
@@bobbyjohnson2320 Thank you for your answer. I watched the EC race progress via RaceOwl. Great job!
Did you finish it? How did it go?

@bobbyjohnson2320 good for you. Wish they did something similar up by nj. Would like to get into it. Congrats
