Financial Freedom - Kayak 1 Star Course At Mac Ritchie Day 1

First day of my 1 star kayak course which started from 9am to 4pm. Paid $55 for registration fee. Total of 11 people had signed up for the course. In the morning, we learnt some basic theory of a kayak like where is the bow and stern. Also on the various methods of carrying a kayak by 2 or individual persons, how to swim out when kayak was capsize with retention of kayak and paddle , towing the kayak together with the paddle and emptying of water.
