By the time we got back to the shore, the water had risen to waist high where we had anchored it, which was the beach at the time. When trying to board the dinghy from the water, I went for a very brisk and bracing swim as I tried to plop myself into it. I'm sure it must have been an absolute joy to watch for any observer from the anchorage.

@neauoire Sounds like any time I try to get into, or out of, a kayak from shore.

@neauoire why not, once you're at the dinghy, walk it back closer to the shore where it's shallow enough to make mounting less awkward? :P

@nomand I had to row to get to the knot on the dead tree, bad planning all around XD

@neauoire when you go to places via dinghy, especially around populated areas, do you usually find a safe place to leave the dinghy? Does it often stick out as something foreign?

@nomand usually yeah. We've beached it downtown san francisco and felt a bit uneasy about that, but in most places we've been to like downtown vancouver, people leave the dinghies alone. I don't think these even register to most people.

Where we are now, there's very few people, and the closest town is a day sail away.

@neauoire ...there is nothing – absolutely nothing – half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats.
