I would have to concur. A canoe with neither paddle in the water is a
bit like a log, something I would expect on a river.
Considering how little control they had, they were moving pretty fast.
But they were doing that "everybody paddle on this side, now everybody
paddle on the other side" zig zag thing. They didn't take their paddles
out of the water until they were on a collision course with me.
That's known, to us grizzled ol' highly-experienced old-school boaters,
as "the financial method of paddling". They go from bank to bank, and
leave you broke.
