Dugout Canoe

Doot Poctoy
Lanuza

A dugout canoe is fashioned by hollowing a log; no outriggers for balance; very shaky to the uninitiated; so, we flooded it twice! Everybody jumped out. Fore and aft, we pulled the sinking canoe back and forth in rapid succession. This pulling motion causes inside water to jump toward both ends of the boat. The canoe slowly rose as inside water leapt outside. We kept pulling until it was dewatered completely. Then we crept back in, very slowly, and we talked in whispers, as if our words would sink the boat again.
