Bring 'er in gently

Last night we had a great dragonboat practice. Our team is really coming along and improving in their technique, endurance and power. I'm feeling confident at steering and managed to avoid us hitting one of the bridge pillars. As well, I docked us like a pro today. The water is shallower now that it's been so hot and summer is wearing on - the river slowly dries up and thus, our dock is closer to the bottom of the river. This meant that my approach wasn't as easy as usual, so I brought us in and expertly slid is in sideways to the dock. So smooth! You may be able to tell that I'm a little proud of myself!
