Carrying the Independence flag, we will go with the currents to Hallets Cove, just before Hell Gate. There, we will do some exercises on land, drink some liquids, and go back to the water to do a wet exit (nose plugs recommended). After all, kayaking is a water sport. It means we are going to get wet, so bring some clothes to change into after the trip. We are going to practice three strokes: forward, sweep and reverse. We are going to follow the ACA methodology to learn these skills.
