I really appreciate your video, I want to do a bunch of the trails in a smaller sailboat and I’m gonna be sailing in Blue Hill bay in late August. it would appear that if the weather is fair, I could do a lot of these crossings.

Cool man, I’ll probably be on a new trip late August early September. Going from Portland east passing blue hill at some point. See you out there!

what is the book in your opening that show routes?
@MadYakker
@MadYakker Месяц назад
It’s the Maine Island Trail Association guidebook. It comes with a MITA membership (around $50). I drew the routes in myself, but it has good maps and information.

😅I think I’m your 1st like 😊 and what a nice wee film.. I also love kayak solo camping… well 95% of my kayaking is solo and here in Ireland on the river Shannon is amazing. Ps how did you get the music rights to your film?? Thanks

I will check your videos out! I would love a trip to Ireland to go sea kayaking! Or anywhere in Northern Europe. Answer to your question: All the music in my video was automatically scanned by RU-vid for Copyright pre upload and there were no copyright restrictions found. RU-vid actually included links in the description for each song for me, and I added the credits.

Thanks! Kayaking is a great endurance sport in itself, but it can’t be too healthy sitting all day long. Plus it’s a great way to explore quickly😂

Great trip! I enjoy your videos very much. Very adventurous with good sound safeties! I'm not familiar with "camping food" like that chicken & rice bag but why not just bring home cooked meals which is going to be fresher and tasting better. That was funny with you just munching away on the spinach.
@MadYakker
@MadYakker 4 месяца назад
Sorry for responding so latex what do you usually bring for home cooked meals? I’d be afraid of having them spoil, esp in warmer conditions. I guess the camping food is just easy to make in a pinch as well.

Always good to leave a paddle plan with someone on land that knows what to do if you don’t return on time.
@MadYakker
@MadYakker 5 месяцев назад
Yes! Good point, I forgot to include that. I go over everything with my parents before I leave.

Curious for those overnighters, would you carry flares in case your coms fail? (Although an EPIRB is pretty bombproof...) Good summary!
@MadYakker
@MadYakker 5 месяцев назад
With my PLB, VHF, and phone service, I wouldn’t consider flares absolutely critical. They would be an an added layer of safety., if all else fails. Something to consider for sure!

Nice I like it. As for solo - I do a lot of solo paddling too. It does have its place in the sport. I think if you plan and prepare for it, it can be rewarding. James
