Hi Jack,

give me more information.

Will you go to the very south or the south west, middlesection (northern or
southern part) or the real high north??? Norway is loooong and there are
many many magnifiscient beautiful places.

I paddled 97 from Bergen via Stavanger to Egersund and I´ve been 98 to the
Vesteralen and the Lofoten. A close friend of mine is living on the south
coast (Skagerrak/Porsgrunn). There are also some good kayak clubs. In
Tromsö, Bergen, Sortland, narvik, Oslo and so on.
I got a chart collection from Stavanger to Cap Lindesnes (dated 97). No
problem about the actuality, the norwegian coast doesn´t change their face a
fast as the german coastline.

Think, you will come through germany on your way to the north? I´m living
nearby the A1, one of the main routes, come along and say hello. I also
could give you copies from maps from Bergen to Stavanger and I got 3 maps
from the Vesteralen.

27th of July, then the ASKR will had come to another end, without me and
without Mr. Arctic Sea Kayak Race, Roy Willy Johanson. But it is the best
time to paddle in Norway.
Depending on the part you will go, take some good anti-mosquito stuff with
you!

Okay, these are my first thoughts. For more exact ones I need more
Information.
Read out the side of Volker Siepmann (Porsgrunn) on VolkerSiep.tripod.com
(without www), maybe it will give you some help, also.

bye
Jochen
