Miraz et al,
The bit about dipping the wheels in the river to scrub off speed looked a little worrying to me.
Please anyone correct me if I'm wrong, I thought the wheels simply aquaplaned across the water to ensure first available contact with the river bank...?
There are a few videos getting around proon and youtube showing a team of
Harvards doing a touch and go on a lake.
I'm not saying it is always safe, there are quite a few who have learned the hard way that it is not, but it seems that it can be done by those who have been properly trained and are mad enough to try...
