“No man is worth his salt who is not ready at all times to risk
his well-being, to risk his body, to risk his life, in a great cause.”
– Theodore Roosevelt.

Under a moon which occasionally peeked through incoming cloud
cover, Skye and Ndara made quick progress as two experienced captains
– at a price. Fully briefing Ndara on the previous run and the concerns
about Layla, the Kenyan’s superior Honda outboard was a blessing,
and kept them cutting through the growing waves. The problem was
the regionally purchased wooden bateau which was taking a pounding,
stressing its ribs and stays to their limits. They decelerated and regained
trim, as it was all for naught if Lake Kivu broke the old boat in half and
devoured them en route.
