If I had it to do over, my first day otw would have been in shallow, chest deep water max water trying to flip the yak and getting back in. Spend the day getting to know the nuances of your plastic ride, like a kid with a new ball glove. My roll over was caused by unfamiliarity , rising seas, frustration at not being properly set up in the tank well. One second I was leaning into a swell and the next, after I crested it , leaning the wrong way. Took a second, but the perfect dunking happened. I'm the kind of guy who considers these things in advance, and I gussed lucky. I shoulda had an orientation day tho. I was lucky ..
