[Paddlewise] Paddling out of Cat Ba, Vietnam

Hello all,

four of us are taking a month long trip to Cambodia and Vietnam. We'd 
love to paddle while there but it is proving difficult to find a way 
to do this. Maybe the brilliant minds of Paddlewise can help.

We'll be on Cat Ba Island in Halong Bay and it would be great if we 
could find a guide or outfitter. All I've been able to find are 
expensive ($1500US) tours and US-based outfitters who only lead 
longer trips.

I'd also like to avoid taking a "No Experience Necessary" guided tour 
if possible. Ideally, someone on the list has a good friend with a 
shed full of boats who loves showing people around. Wishful thinking, 
I know.

So, anyone know of anything or am I doomed to look at all of that 
beautiful water kayak-free and sad?

Thanks!

-Patrick
