That is a yellow to Orange colour fade with 'alpha jewel' so its custom colours that would cost a bit more than a straight gel colour. The Etain really is a great boat, you will surely like it, I should do a proper review now!😁

Most of the waters off Ullapool to Capre Wrath are disfigured by fish farms, and by the detritus their operators dump with impunity.

Oftentimes, for whatever reason, I feel I need to rush through these exercises, which undoubtedly uses up more energy as there's a direct correlation with rushing and failure! I need to remind myself to take my time.

Please, please can you guys post some more instructional videos…..I haven’t laughed so much since Manuel acquired his’Siberian Hamster’ in Faulty Towers. On a more serious note I echo the comments of others who have praised the fact that it’s great to see mortals trying out some of the manoeuvres that the pros seem to do so easily….it’s sobering to to be reminded just how difficult it might be getting back into your boat if things go wrong. Thanks for posting.

Wonders of Scotland!👻 "Fingal's Cave" From where comes the sound of the flute. Can there be a cave,,,from which the sweet sound of the flute floats? You will think that you are either haunted or giving a joke. No mosquitoes, one of the amazing sea caves in the world is Fingals Cave. It is located next to Staffa, an uninhabited island off the west coast of Scotland. This cave is also called Sur cave. In the 18th century, Joseph Banks and his group first discovered the sound of this melody. Bank's team was enthralled by its beauty with 82 acres of land. They came and started preaching in the mainland. Since then, the popularity of this amazing cave has been increasing. Queen Victoria of England also visited this cave. The Scottish Government is committed to beautification. Now the must item for tourists is Fingal Cave. The interior structure of this cave is such that when the wind moves through it, a strangely beautiful and flute-like sound comes out of this cave. Anyone who approaches this cave on a full moon night and hears this melody will be mesmerized. It seems as if he is staying in a dreamland. The cave is made up of brilliant hexagonal basalt rocks that look as if they were man-made. Maximum height is 138 feet. A long time ago a lava flow from a volcano cooled and formed this shape as it flowed through the sea water. It is currently declared a heritage site belonging to the National Trust of Scotland.

there doesn't seem to be enough blade on that paddle. It's like a narrow Euro blade. And if there's that much flutter when you start, either the paddle is really crappy, or you're doing something wrong. I have no flutter at all starting with my wooden greenland paddle.

I kept laughing too when she said she'll wee herself haha. Today in Lee Valley whitewater centre although failed assessment, I managed couple of times to re-enter Grabner Hype inflatable kayak with no paddle float support.
