Waving . . .
What a marvellous
crew we had this morning . . . it all seemed to click together
despite the windy conditions. Kerry would agrue it was because his work in the vital three position - or maybe he was concerned about the bee crawling around his seat! John confirmed his status as coach as he put
us through our paces on the way home – although it sounded a bit like a party
going down the back there! The rest of the
crew would like you to share the jokes on the ‘cox box’ PA system!And we managed to power through the ‘standing wave’ turbulence on the Yarra OK . . . this is where the incoming tide meets the flowing river. Kerry misinterpreted my explanation and started waving to the people on the bank (seriously!) . . . a simple clarification is presented at http://www.acs.psu.edu/drussell/Demos/superposition/superposition.html.
