I am champing at the bit to get out sea paddling; I can’t wait to get back to the SW coast! Given that I’m also a fanatical white water paddler and the rivers are all heaving right now, something seems to be wrong with me.
Even so, I suspect that I might just stay away from the sea for the time being…

































Hi Mark, good luck with the book and the blog!

Excellent idea; I lived in London for 14 years – and headed back north 8 years ago – but never recognised the potential of sea kayaking, or sea kayaking on the South Coast and stuck to mountaineering for my kicks. I’ve still to paddle the Channel, but I’ll get round to it at some stage.
I’ve written a couple of mountaineering books, don’t expect to make money from it, but there are many other rewards – which actually count for a lot more!
Still wish I’d got into sea kayaking much earlier!
