Sruf Launching a Hobie - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I have only made a couple landings with an outfitter. First one was an ankle slapper and I just peddled in. Second was 4-6 footers and I came in backwards. Both times the drive was in and strapped, rudder up, paddle in hand.

When I came in backwards, I never touched the drive and paddled backwards between waves keeping straight out the entire time. Very boring after watching the rental crowd eat it almost every time.
