  Hi everyone. I’m John Biermann and I’m a fairly new boater. I took the instructional class last spring. I was planning on coming down to the Saint on Saturday if someone would be willing to let me boat with them and give me a few pointers.

  Big thank you to Gary, Ben, and Dan for helping me on my first run down the lower Saint. Gary is correct, you only need 1/2 of a roll if you want to swim and test out your dry suit!
