They'll do what you ask.   Raft guiding is hard work, be nice to them....... 

I've guided my kids and family down for the last two weekends, I never thought of the Ocoee as technical, but you get a crew of lillidippers and the rocks between Grumpy's and Moon Chute and that turns into a real job!!


Just tell your wife to keep her center of gravity toward the inside of the raft, so if she gets bumped, she'll fall  INTO the raft rather than out.

My kids are already looking to next time. Ive got to teach my son to guide before this starts cutting into my paddling time!!   I did get a lap in my EZ today, thank goodness.   

be safe, have fun!
