In a perfect world,  let's say you are planning to paddle a linear
distance of six (6) miles at three (3)  miles per hour against a one (1)
mile per hour current how long should it take you if you don't stop?
How long will it take if you take a five (5) minute rest break every
fifteen (15) minutes (just stop paddling and let the current have its
way)?
Practical math or practically magic?
