C6-7 A very high flight banking back over me to about 500 feet. Good 14” parachute however drifted forever and across fields and  landed in the creek. I quickly got undressed and jumped in Creek, swimming out and retrieving the rocket, before it sank. Looks to have some damage to the main body tube from water. Salvageable at least. That was a first.

Actual Altitude: 500 Feet
