That is really helpful, thank you. So Wyre Piddle lock is now the location?

Does anyone know if anything concrete ever came of this?

Thanks,

Thanks again for your input, folks. The book is now in print...

Thanks for your input, all - book is now off to the printers.

PS Anyone know if the firing range at Dodman Point (South Cornwall) is still in use? I can't find any info about this.

Thanks,

Thanks for all the contributions so far - so useful ideas. Any more updates on 'South West Sea Kayaking' very welcome, as I'm still working on it! I will read up more on Pacific Oysters, that is a new one on me. It's just occurred to me (nothing to do with the book) that the Lynher-Tiddy trip would ...

Hi there. This message is for those who own a copy of my guidebook 'South West Sea Kayaking' - the book has just sold out its most recent print run (just a few copies left on Amazon I think) and I'm working on the third edition. Make my job easier, please - what is out of date? What has changed in t...

Thanks Chris. I'd post a whole lot more about this amazing adventure if folk were interested, but I can see that I have been hugely eclipsed by a query about towing eyes.

Such a great trip...

Ten years after my last attempt...

Sorry to report that a competitor apparently lost their life in the race today, on the final stage of the 4-day event. No details as yet.

***** ******* *** *****! **** **** **** *******, *****.

This is all I have to say.

Definitely this one.

Impressive.

Ardez Gorge on the Inn?

River Thames is (perhaps surprisingly) outstanding, and no portaging necessary

Pub Paddles is excellent, but based around short paddles. To the pub.

Surely not Steve Fisher after he has his crowdfunding safety video rip off of just a few years ago, good folk don't do that.

I would like to paddle with Sam Ellis (whom I haven't crossed paths with yet)

I briefly met him in Switzerland, a few weeks back. Seemed a nice enough chap, but the main topic of conversation afterwards was whether the shirtless wall of muscle we'd just encountered was actually Ragnar Lothbrok.

Just camp on the beach when everyone has gone home.

Adding photo albums here...

Just returned from a week of boating with a group of fellow out-of-shape and out-of-practice middle-aged friends...here follow a few river notes, that may or may not be of use to folk. Basically our trip was dictated by two things; water levels (i.e. what wasn't too high/ scary) and the fact that we...

Has the sea forum now started satirising itself?

Sounds great, have a fun adventure.

For the love of God, please post this stuff in the 'Gear' forum.

I was there last weekend, it is too low now. However it only needs a few hours of heavy rain to be paddleable.

Thanks for sharing ... another trip to add to the wish list ...

Splendid. I paddled Awesome Gorge a few times, but not the following section. Back then this was known as 'Gnarly Gorge' and we were told by those who'd been in there that it contained a blind 30-footer and some awful log jams. "Never again", I think one Kiwi said. Is any of that true?

You are thinking of Nepal, a different country.

Brilliant.
