Louisa spent the time when her teammates had to do their laps stretching and cheering for the person struggling with their coracle. As soon as Kennedy grinned at them and tagged her, Louisa gave him the thumbs-up and hurried to take her wand out from her waistband, without any extra special effects like before. She pointed at the stick in front of her and contemplated doing the spell non-verbally but quickly decided against it. They were in a contest and the last thing her teammates would want was for her to try new things out now. Hehe.

"Vergrandis Navis," moving her wand in a circular motion, her head buzzing with the image of the coracle she'd gotten before. VOILA! The stick burst into the needed boat immediately causing Louisa to smirk as she dragged it onto the shore and dropped it into the water. She tucked her wand in, grabbed her paddle and put her first foot into the coracle, ignoring the slight sways, she put her second foot spreading out her arms so that she kept her balance and didn't mess the whole thing up. Falling down on her knees helped with the balance issue more and she hastily dropped the paddle in the water and started paddling her way toward the ribbon-free pole.

Her arms were used to the activity by then and she knew how to use the paddle without hitting the coracle so many times. In two minutes, Louisa reached the pole, she playfully poked it once and then started stirring her coracle around, grunting feebly as she did so, then she went back to paddling again and this time toward her teammates. She looked at them and offered a big grin, if her calculations were right it was only Nigel's second lap and they'd win. This gave her more motivation and she started going faster, her arm and chest muscles starting to complain but the Ravenclaw ignored them.

Reaching the shore, Louisa stumbled out of the coracle - never the graceful one - and with a small laugh she tagged the next person. OR DID THEY WIN?
