What is this man doing wrong?
He sits on the normally designated "rear seat"
which, when you are alone makes the front of the Canoe
rise high. So, even a gentle breeze will turn the boat.
He should be sitting on the front seat, facing the stern.
Because he is now more weight centered, the canoe will not rise so high above the water and it will be easier to control it.
*****
The biggest mistake he made, however,
was that he did not ask my advice.
This red streak in the water is not a spill from an oil tanker.
But it is a reflection of a red umbrella
in the green waters of Little Joe Lake.
