SEA KAYAK BILLDAL Sunday 4 Nov

There's been a lot of rain and strong winds this autumn so when the weather calms down and the water becomes a mirror then it's a must to go out. A paddling friend, Martin, has for a while been interested in paddling one of my Tahe Greenland kayaks and to try a greenland paddle.




Martin feels comfortable and passes through Norra Småholmarna

Heading for some islets further west

There was no wind at all. Outside Stora Lövö we met a seal that almost always turns up to show his interest ín kayaks.

 
We passed through the gap southeast of Stora Lövö before doing some Rock Gardening.

I paddled my Over-line Aretusa. Martin came in from the right while I was singing "Pocahontas" by Neil Young.

"Paddles cut the water in a long and hurried flight..."

    I put the camera in the day hatch and didn't bother to use it more. Today was a really relaxed paddle, and I didn't really care how fast or far I paddled. We used a couple of hours in one of the best ways possible.

My Garmin watch reminded me that this was a really relaxed paddle for about 8km. We continued paddling. We went out to Lilla Lövö where we explored the rocky surroundings and then back to Billdalsbadet where we summed up the trip with some nice clichés. Martin liked the kayak and now he wants to try the Tahe Greenland LC. You're welcome.
