Time: 3.12 hours Distance: 9.34 miles We put in just North of the Marquam Bridge on a rainy day and headed up-river to the Waverly Country Club. There was light river traffic but it rained off and on the entire trip. Dane claimed the auspicious achievement of being the first to dump himself in the water accidentally as he lost balance on entry but the first full test of his suit was a success and it didn't stop the trip.
