Begyndertur 1609 Pouls kajakblog Friday, 17 September, at 13:33
Som sædvanlig en hyggelig tur med et miks af begyndere og erfarne.
Dagens store oplevelse var en havørn der fløj lige hen over os.
Dagens grin var at Hjarne havde begravet sin pagaj så dybt i mudderet at han op på to kajakker for at vriste den løs. Stedet - lige inde på Fladstrand - er nu døbt Hjarnes Bøje.

En ny snygg Frej from down under...
"Dear Bjorn,
Well it took a bit longer than expected but I've now finished the Frej and we launched it yesterday. My wife loves it. I'll send you a file with build photos later.
I've still got website or Instagram page for either the Spray or the Frej but will do so soon. I retired in June and with a lockdown in Sydney, I should have enough time now.
For now, attached a few pics of the finished boat.
All the best and hope this Coronavirus has not affected you too much.

Sud Italia Kayak Tour 2021: il diario da Punta Alice a Sibari... Tatiyak Monday, 13 September, at 12:51
Martedì 7 settembre 2021
– 52° giorno di viaggio
Punta Alice – Cariati Marina: 20 km
Nuvoloso e piovoso – vento contrario e mare
increspato
Un’altra notte di pioggia a catinelle.
E’ quasi impossibile prendere sonno per via dei lampi che
illuminano a giorno la nostra tendina e dei tuoni che rombano
proprio sopra le nostre teste. Ci sembra di entrare nel cuore di un
tipico temporale estivo e di viverne appieno suoni e luci, talvolta
sobbalzando per le scosse impreviste e ravvicinate e talaltra
rilassandoci perché i secondi trascorsi tra il lampo ed il
tuono lasciano intendere una distanza sempre crescente. Ad un certo
punto Mauro prende a russare e io capisco che non c’è
molto altro da fare, sicuramente niente da temere.
E mi addormento anch’io. Fino alle otto, di un sonno profondo
e sereno.
La mattina è ancora fredda e scura.
Facciamo colazione all’aperto perché ha finalmente
smesso di piovere ma con indosso la giacca d’acqua
perché il vento è ancora teso e frizzante.
Le previsioni annunciano un calo per le undici ma non siamo
più tanto sicuri della loro attendibilità. Ci siamo
comunque preparati a partire, fiduciosi che il mare prima o poi
sarebbe calato, almeno quel tanto per farci imbarcare. Passano le
ore ma il vento non cala.
All’una e mezza spostiamo i kayak di un centinaio di metri, in un tratto di spiaggia più agevole per l’imbarco, dove le onde frangono con minore frequenza...

10 Miles, No Roads The Ikkatsu Project Sunday, 12 September, at 17:27
It’s becoming a rare thing to find extended sections of waterfront that don’t have a road running right on top of them. Or at least a road that slithers down to the beach from somewhere inland, an unwanted reminder that there’s another world out there, louder, faster and meaner. It’s good when you do find a place like this; you want to spend time there, to soak it all in without the sound of gears shifting on the hills and brakes squealing on the turns right above.
And you want to take care of these rare places too, as best you can. Our group of four paddled from Clallam Bay to Pillar Point yesterday, part of the...

A seasonal pleasure Mountain and Sea Scotland Wednesday, 08 September, at 22:06
September at Mountain and Sea Scotland HQ brings one of most satisfying of seasonal tasks, the storing of firewood logs to fuel our woodburner. A big load of beech and elm from our regular supplier Ben at Treelogic arrived on a Friday, giving us the weekend to do the job.
The first task was to sort out what would be stacked immediately and what could be split to give a variety of log sizes. There followed an evening's work steadily moving the logs to the woodstore by wheelbarrow and starting the stacking process. There was no hurry to do it as this load of wood isn't for use in the coming winter, it's destined to be burned in autumn and winter 2022/23.

Spindrift – Assar Åhlander Björn Thomasson Design Wednesday, 08 September, at 09:29
Från Assar Åhlander en ny välbyggd kajak – den här gången en av de snyggaste tolkningar av Spindrift-ritningen jag sett! Jag gillar det grafiskt rena och enkla där ljus och skugga skulpterar fram formen. Design som motsats till styling.
"Hej Björn,
Nu har jag precis blivit klar med min Spindrift. Kortad till 576 cm och efter ett långt velande om färgsättning blev den, vit...
Jag kommer att lägga upp lite bilder med beskrivningar på en websida så småningom och delar adressen i kommentarsfältet senare.
Mitt viktmål var från början 15kg, det blev till slut 16.5kg. Helt ok resultat eftersom den har "extra allt" med packluckor fram och bak, kan ha underliggande eller aktermonterat roder, dubbel glasfiber på skrovets botten, linfästen, drickahållare och låsögla.
Sittbrunnen är handupplagd kolfiber/glasfiber, skrovet av 4mm paulownialister (förutom relings- och köllister som är i gran) och däcket av 4mm böjplywood.
Pedalställ och roder är från Nelo som är lätt att få tag i. Bailern är en debrito och betydligt svårare att tjata till sig att få köpa.
Packluckorna (pry-out) från Beckson, som saknar återförsäljare i Europa. Efter ett antal obesvarade email och LinkedIn-kontakter hänvisade de till...

Sud Italia Kayak Tour 2021: il diario da Capo Colonna a Punta Alice... Tatiyak Monday, 06 September, at 19:27
Giovedì 2 settembre 2021
– 47° giorno di viaggio
Capo Colonna – Capo Colonna: 0 km in kayak, qualche km a
piedi
Ventosissimo con raffiche fino a 30 nodi (F7 scala
Beaufort)
Sapevamo che sarebbe stata una giornata di vento forte.
Avevamo scelto di proposito la caletta più ridossata nei
pressi di Capo Colonna, in modo da proteggere la tenda dagli
assalti del vento e da approfittare del giorno di sosta forzata per
peregrinare nei dintorni.
La visita al faro è d’obbligo. Ma anche agli scavi archeologici che si estendono sull’intero promontorio di Capo Colonna. Sono famosi per la colonna che ha dato il nome al capo: è l’unica superstite delle sei colonne del lato rivolto verso il mare e del grande colonnato esterno che circondava il tempio greco dedicato alla dea Hera Lacinia. La colonna svetta sui resti del tempio e del successivo insediamento romano ed è talmente imponente che fa fare un salto indietro nel tempo. La pietra è molto particolare, tipica del luogo e si ritrova anche negli opus reticolatum che costituivano parte delle mura difensive del nucleo urbano. Ha un nome accattivante, calcarenite conchilifera, che fa subito pensare al mare. Altre due colonne sono state rinvenute coricate sul fondale poco al largo del tempio e sulle varie secche che incoronano il capo si possono ammirare altri resti grazie alle immersioni subacquee guidate.
Noi restiamo a lungo a guardare la colonna agg...

Igår blev det en liten paddelrunda i solnedgången. Riktigt fint på Skälderviken och så blev det ett litet dopp på stranden mellan Klitterhus och Rönneå. En del fiskare ute och lite folk på stranden och ett fåtal båtar. Fint avslut på helgen.

Mt. Desert Camping On the Big Sea in a Little Boat Monday, 06 September, at 04:35
We just did our annual (except for COVID 20202) Mt. Desert Island camping trip. It is a great way to end the summer. The campground we go to, Mt. Desert Island Campground, is great and I, personally, think we have one of the best sites in the place. We have a huge site that is right across from the docks. We can get to the water in one minute and don't have to put up with all of the foot traffic on the path running from the road to the dock.
For me one of the best parts of the trip is that I get to kayak just about everyday. I get up before everyone else and spend about an hour kayaking around the top of Sommes Sound. It is not very exciting kayaking since it is very sheltered, but it is relaxing. I get to practice some boat control, generally chill out, and occasionally see some cool wild life. This year I saw seals, a loon, a bald eagle, and several harbor porpoises. The porpoises were the coolest because they are hard to spot and sleeker than the other swimmers. This time they were so close I could touch them with my paddle. (I did not even try.)
We also did some nice hikes: Acadia Mt. Flying Mt. Mt. Gorham.
I think we nearly broke the friends we brought with us. We did the hardest hikes early on....
The Stars over Sand Beach was disappointing this year because it was too cloudy to see anything. The rangers did an outstanding job keeping the crowd interested even without the stars of the show....
We accidentally got a nice long ride o...
The Reefs and Paddling with Intention On the Big Sea in a Little Boat Monday, 06 September, at 04:09
When the currents are right, the reefs off of Stonington offer one of the best playgrounds in the area. Despite some rain, today looked like it would be a promising day for fun and some learning.
Tim G. and Nick Shade volunteered to take a group of us out to the reefs and share some of their expertise.
Before setting out, we all talked about what we hoped to get out of the day. A common theme was accelerating onto the waves. It seems like such an easy thing to do: just dig deep and paddle fast. If only....
One the way out Nick asked me to do my best three strokes to get up to speed. I leaned a bit forward in the cockpit, stood the paddle up high, and speared the water. I got a nice little boost. Then Nick asked a bunch of pointed questions trying tease out what it was about the stroke that made it work. How was it different than a cruising stroke; where in the stroke was the power coming from; what could be done to optimize it? In the moment, the questions were a little frustrating because I didn't feel like I had good answers. With some time to reflect, I don't think having ready answers was the point; thinking about the stroke was the point and it was definitely helpful to get the brain engaged.
We stopped on Wiccopesett rock for a quick lunch to watch the race form up and talk about how to best experience it. Nick explained to us, in amazingly detailed, yet simple, terms what was happening with the water and how our kayaks behaved in relati...

The Third Coast, Redux The Ikkatsu Project Sunday, 05 September, at 17:55
The Strait of Juan de Fuca is Washington’s third coast. On the one hand, there are the wild sand beaches and rocky headlands of the Pacific coast, while to the east, you’ll find the interconnected waterways of Puget Sound. Two very different salt-water systems, both of them definitively Northwest. They are connected to each other by the Straits, that hundred mile-long, horizontal cut of blue that defines the international border as well as Washington’s northern coastline.
Depending on where you are on this third coast, the shoreline ecosystems will look different. The closer you are to Cape Flattery, at the mouth of the Straits, the more things look like the open coast: sandy beaches, sea grasses in the intertidal and kelp just...

Frej i plywood – Per Carlin Björn Thomasson Design Saturday, 04 September, at 17:20
"Hej Björn och Petrus
Denna vecka är ni båda mina hjältar. Björn för att du designat en så fantastisk kajak som Frej, Petrus för att S&G kittet jag köpte av dig höll så hög nivå på material och passform. Telefonsupporten ifrån Petrus är också värd att nämnas, du svarade med bra tips varje gång jag körde fast eller hade en fundering som var avvikande ifrån bygginstruktionen.
Som ni säkert anar så har jag sjösatt min nybyggda Frej. Att jag byggde en till kajak efter Spray har flera förklaringar. Det korta svaret är att jag behövde en kajak med kapell för längre turer när det går grov sjö. Det blev för mig uppenbart efter en lång och blöt i septembember i min surfski under förra året. Det tog kroppen en vecka att återhämta sig efter den nedkylningen.
Nu har jag två kajaker, med väldigt olika egenskaper och användningsområden. Jag hoppas båda blir lika mycket paddlade framöver.
Att bygga med S&G var för mig en ny och trevlig bekantskap. Att limma med superlim istället för att sy med koppartråd är så smart att det nästan är Nobelpris på det. Är det någon som provat det på ett stripbygge istället för klammer? Det gick fort och var enkelt att få ihop både däck och skrov, rakt blev det också eftersom man byggde i negativa formar. Resten var mer eller mindre samma sak som att bygga...
