51˚N Seakayaking: September 2011
http://51degreesnorthseakayaking.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Friday, 30 September 2011. I quickly sprint down to the bridge and realise that I've missed the sunset. Before I set off I give way to a trimiran that is coming in to berth. And then make my way over to Penarth yacht club, but by then the sun had truly set. Thanks guy's I thoroughly enjoyed myself. Tuesday, 20 September 2011. As mentioned in my Stupid O'Clock. A logical conclusion would be that it was all in my head and fear was taking over, if that is correct then the answer to releasing that ever tight...

51˚N Seakayaking: December 2011
http://51degreesnorthseakayaking.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 28 December 2011. At last, despite numerous previous invites I actually managed to get out for a paddle with Stu and Taran, and the best bit for me was that it wasn't going to be in The Bay. Today's plan was to paddle to Llantwit Major from Cold Knap on the ebb and return with the flood. Timed to perfection, the small hull friendly sandy bit is starting to get exposed, and the water is like a mill pond. Approaching Aberthaw power station. Image courtesy of Taran.

51˚N Seakayaking: August 2011
http://51degreesnorthseakayaking.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 30 August 2011. I realised after my first Gower trip that without getting a lot of the more specific seakayak techniques down, I am going to be a liability to myself. So in order to avoid this I thought I'd better get my act together and practice and keep on practicing. However what I didn't want to do is just bimble around without any focus. This helps with raising your pulse. If you can't do twenty, then do what you can, rest and do some more until you do twenty. Don't rush, do them slowly und...

51˚N Seakayaking: October 2011
http://51degreesnorthseakayaking.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Monday, 24 October 2011. As it's been a while since I posted anything so I thought I'd bring things up to date. I haven't been lazy, I've been getting out for a few paddles but just no further than the bay. The one time I was invited on a paddle outside of the bay sods law intervened and I couldn't make it because of work, but Scott and Taran did http:/ scottkayak.blogspot.com/2011/10/cold-knap-to-aberthaw-back-161011.html. A couple of points I noted for myself. D) I don't like rear quartering seas (prob...

51˚N Seakayaking: May 2012
http://51degreesnorthseakayaking.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Friday, 25 May 2012. Two Weeks In May. Imagine just drifting, sitting there alone in the complete silence of the moment. Not the slightest sound from any direction, not a breath of wind, not a ripple on the deep clear crystal water. The sensation of warmth on your face as the sun wins its battle with the early morning mist and still has enough strength to penetrate deep into your soul, today was going to be a good day. Northern coastline, Courtmacsherry Bay. Unknown Cove Courtmacsherry Bay. It would be a...

51˚N Seakayaking: January 2012
http://51degreesnorthseakayaking.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, 28 January 2012. Toady I find myself back at Oxwich, only this time with Taran. The plan for today's adventure is to turn right and head on down to Llangennith. The sun being very welcome at Oxwich after the cold early start that we all had to make to get here. We weren't the only ones though, as we were loading the boats Stu noticed a seal basking in the water, absolutely superb. St Illtyd's, a 13th century church that overlooks Oxwich Bay. Yep right in the middle of it. Stu has a go as well.
