‘Wet launch’: Brrrr! by rhoing

‘Wet launch’: Brrrr!

Launching a rowing shell from a fixed dock is a Goldilocks and the Three Bears kind of situation with the lake level:
   » Too low: the boat scrapes on the underwater dock supports
   » Too high: one has to wade into the water with the boat over one’s head
   » “Mama Bear lake level” is just right!

The problem with wading into the water today is that it’s February: the water is cold!

My feet never warmed up during my row, so after I finished, I had the car heater directed at my feet full-blast.
