G'Day, Andrew Macauley of the New South Wales Sea kayaking Club has just completed a non stop crossing of Bass Strait from Mainland Australia (Wilson's Promontery) to Tasmania (Boat Harbour on Tasmania's N.W coast) a distance of about 220km. Thirty six hours of continuous paddling across some very hazardous water. <http://www.abc.net.au/news/newsitems/s1000116.htm> He fell asleep at one stage but on waking was able to roll back up. All the best, PeterO *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
