Silent Solitude Sunrise or: Why I paddle the edges
« on: April 01, 2017, 07:11:08 PM »
Woke up.... looked out the window.... holy crap!!!!! Go, go, go!
and I did.

36 degrees of absolute perfection. Over 2 hours.... my GoPro didn't last the whole trip, but saved something special.

The proverbial "calm before the storm.
"April Fools" storm hit NE, in the afternoon. Still raging outside!

Amazing you can sup when it is 36 degrees F outside. BTW, I enjoyed your version of "creeking". I thought to myself those places would be a good place to catch some blue crabs during the summertime.

Thanks for sharing your video.

Thanks HanaSurf... it is the 14' Search. I really like it... very stable for my winter escapades and paddles easily.

Thanks,I wish there were some reviews from users on their touring boards. The wood scheme looks great for touring.
