We were in waining water. We almost carried the drop. Probably should have...

I didn't think we could make the ferry from the left side and I knew that we couldn't run the right like the Shredders were doing. (They were straddling the rock in the center of the right drop). After looking at it for a long time, I figured that while we wouldn't make the ferry clean, we would make it to the right of the central rock and then figure out about getting out of being wedged in the right slot. That is exactly what happened.

That's a scary spot. Glad things worked out.
