Kayaking

Had a nice, relaxing paddle on Kilbirnie Loch the other evening. I was in a Skerray again, but this time one of the older style ones with the smaller cockpit - making it much harder for me to get in and out as I had to take my full weight on my hands, never a good idea :-) Lesson learnt there - pick a different boat next time. The club has about 24 sea kayaks, and there seem to be 2 or 3 different types, so hopefully I'll have no problems getting a boat with a bigger cockpit next time.

It was a lovely evening (a pleasant change from the rain we've been getting every single day....) and we enjoyed bobbing about at the far end of the loch watching the sunset.
