Paddlewisers, I just completed my sixth Catalina for Lunch crossings, which consist of paddling 19 NM to Catalina Island in Southern California, having lunch, and paddle back the same day, making for a 38 NM day. This time I did it solo. I used a GP for the crossings, and it worked wonderfully. No blisters or sore joints to report the day after, and that was doing it in a rudderless and skegless kayak. My crossing times were pretty good too. Anyway, the video report is at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXmQR5yIIho or you can read the trip report at: http://www.rollordrown.com/ci4lunch.html Duane *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
