subject: [Paddlewise] Info about paddling in Chile?
Date: Mon, 15 Sep 2003 08:51:56 -0400

Hi,

I am concocting a long-term plan to paddle a section of the Chilean coast,
possibly the whole south coast from Puerto Montt to Tierra del Fuego. I am
looking for any info about planning resources: books, websites, articles,
names/contacts of people who have done expeditions there? I know that trip
has been done several times but I don't know by who, and I haven't seen any
books about it. 

Thanks,

Tim

I'd contact Ed Gillet in San Diego. Many years ago (1980's) he paddled from
Terra del Fuego to Columbia up the West coast of South America in an
pre-1990's Seda Viking.
Oops, I just tried looking for him. My favorites link to Southwest Sea
Kayaks brought up a porn site. A Google search lead me to a discussion group
thread of folks who had paddled with him and were trying to contact him but
without success. Maybe you will have more luck than I did in finding him.
Please let me know if you do.
