Take a look at the Greenland inspired kayaking page on Facebook. You will get loads of advice there. It really just depends on what you’re willing to spend. A chap recently posted on Facebook about how he made a gp out of a 2x4 from b&q ..it would’ve cost peanuts. It looked a wee bit knotty in place...

I’d look into something like the ardeche or Allier in France, I’m sure there would be hire places and guided trips.

If your out of your boat in big surf I would have thought the last thing you would want is to be attached to a big lump of plastic that will drag you, wrap a leash around your neck etc etc. It’s mass is much greater than a surfboard ! Potential for a horrible joint dislocation injury on whatever lim...

I got on well with a thin pair of neoprene gloves from decathlon, they had a palm that was slightly grippy

Awesome work mr moderator.

You can get custom fit decks from reed if you want to be sure of a perfect fit but I suggest speaking to them first as I’m sure a Scorpio Lv will be a deck they have done before.

The images have now vanished..this seemed like a great resource..is there any way to restore the images to this thread ?

Think I’d drill a very small exploratory hole ..say 1 or 2 mm and have a poke around the inside of the hole to feel if there’s solid sidewalks to that drilled out hole or if there is a gap between the entry and exit points in the outer surface of the kayak. A tiny hole can be filled using the plasti...

You’d probably need to find a screw on deck fitting that can be bolted in place for the bungees to thread through. This means you need access to the underside of the plastic to fit the washers and nuts or you could resort to self tapping screws but that’s less robust.

The only thing I’d add is if you’re working on a large area and you’re in a garage etc, make sure it’s warm enough for your flowcoat to cure.

Use a dust mask when sanding And a vapour respirator is a good idea: polyester resin vapour indoors stinks, and makes me feel a bit nauseous.

Bouyancy aid is what the vast majority use: simple, can be reused multiple times on the same outing (if you fell in a lot), when you’re in the water it’s also fairly low profile so doesn’t restrict your ability to perform an effective rescue, handy pockets and hydration bladder versions etc A Lifeja...

You can also use the met office rainfall radar to see how rainfall is tracking across the country

I have a wrsi current. It took some fiddling to get the fit just right but I find it comfy enough to wear for several hours.
