Mostly we were taking it quietly. Shane was using electric and very little power, letting the stream do most of the work, but when cornering, we did need to up the prop speed to steer as the river had its own idea about where it wanted to take us. People were taking advantage of the sunny day and we met several small boats on the twisting river. I was a bit worried about taking the tiller at first, but it soon felt okay, with Shane giving me the benefit of his experience as we went.
