5.00I rode with Joe and he did a great job! The water was definitely cold but all the gear provided kept me warm, and I jumped in the water twice! (on purpose) The guides were very informing and I enjoyed getting recommendations and chatting with them. I felt safe the entire ride and never felt unstable with all the great instruction. The snacks provided at the end was very rewarding for all the rowing. The views and conversation was great the entire time!
Absolutely wonderful. ...
