A six day Scottish Sea Kayak trip down Firth of Lorn & the west side of Jura, from Esdale taking in the Grey Dogs, Scarba, the Corryvreckan, the west side of Jura with its raised beaches and the iconic slate island of Belnahua.
I apologize for seeing so much out of order. But am I glad I didn't just pass this video by. It is SO enjoyable Bob! Thank you so much for sharing your trip with us. I'll get there one day but it will have to wait a wee while yet. I loved everything about your filming. I hope more people get to see your videos and encourage you to make even more. Thanks again. Best wishes, Pam
Hi Pam. Thank you so much for your kind comments. I make these videos for myself, they provide great memories from my trips, but its very nice when others enjoy them as well😁😁😁
Really nice, guys! I like the lack of drama (ironically usually in conditions that are rather tame accompanied by loud music). I have done many nice trips since retiring here in Oregon, the last being pre-COVID from Prince Rupert, BC (Canada) to Port Hardy on the open coast side, solo. COVID and aging companions knocked me off these trips temporarily, but hopefully I will be back in the saddle this summer as I am still in good paddle shape. You guys certainly wetted my appetite for more.
Thank you very much for the superb and perfekt videos! Dreaming of West Bretagne FR. The water is much warmer there in summer...17°;-). Do you know a Dealer in europe who sells the Berghaus tent you are using? Good luck from Germany Eberhard Koch
@@getwet501 hi Bob, Tank you for your answer! Inspired by your Videos, I ordered a Cairngorm in Scotland...had to pay over 70 € import tax but I think it's worth. Hopfully I will set it first at Finisterre FR. Waiting for more exiting videos from Scotland Eberhard germany
@@eberhardkoch1576 excellent. I think they are great tents for sea kayaking, not too big, but useful space to give some comfort levels when the weather goes bad. Enjoy
Mitchel blades, made in the uk, great quality, nice to use, competitive price, fully adjustable with a join that doesn't wear or stick like some of the more widely used brands 😁
@@getwet501 Great, that sounds very interesting. Untill now I use "one of the well known English brands" and exactly like you say; the joint wears out and formed even a circular crack. And with nothing less than THREE of my previous paddles the blade broke off. Let's see if Mitchell ships to Spain. Thanks!
Mmm, i don't pay too much attention to the altitude on these Garmins to be honest, not sure if they are accurate on small altitude changes. I do use the speed and distance info while I'm paddling though, and its fun to see your trace when you get home
@@josephinebennington7247 ah but the tides races are so big in the area sometimes you can physically see a 2-3m level difference ahead of you.... not that I'm excepting that to register on the Garmin either😁
