    Bad timing

    The water in False Creek has never been particularly clean, so flipping your boat in the water there has never been a particularly desirable thing. When you have raw sewage leaking into the water, it's a particularly bad time to flip. Needless to say, I flipped for the first time today. It wasn't near the source of the leak, so I'm relatively grateful for that.
     
    On a side note, I've found that the best way to swim your boat back to shore is to hold onto the boat with one hand, and do the back stroke with the other. It keeps your head out of the water, and it's much faster than just using your feet to kick. I'm also damn fast at flipping the boat back up if I may say so myself.
