Out and about just past Loch Chon

Cheers mate

Cheeky wee phone snap from yesterday morning at Loch Ard.

Was just about to post this! Great idea

That sucks man. I've seen a few vids where folk have attached motors to them, spinning blades near an inflatable would be squeaky bum time for me.

Is it really hard to make any progress in them even with a good skeg? I imagine a good bit of kit weight would help it sit lower in the water if you get me.

Biscuits IN the beard is the ultimate wilderness goal I would say :lol

Is it the done thing to enter the woods and not leave till a beautiful windswept mane clings to your face? I need to face this bushcraft trial.

Is human waste a lot more toxic than animal/livestock etc hence the burying?

If you need an instructional video on how to poo, then you shouldn't be out in the woods.😅

The sevy colarado seems to be a popular choice. Definitely be tempted as Summer draws closer. There are always a few canoe snobs that look down on them but for wild camping these look great.

Yeah I'm not planning on travelling far and certainly not in any hilly areas. I have a few nice pieces of woodland scouted out in a lowland valley. Starting out I'll be using a tent and practising shelter building till the decent(ish) weather comes.

I'd love to have an inflatable when I'm up the local hills, plenty of small remote reservoirs and lochs that never get paddled because of no access. I've seen a few that are geared for fishing too which would be cool.

Typical easter weather. Was hoping to make my first attempt at a camp :(

I'm hoping to get into canoeing this year and make a camping trip of it. Looks so peaceful and relaxing.

I snatched up that sabre 45 that Lou was sellig on here. Pretty cool that you can add the sidepacks later on if you need more space.

Cheers guys😊

I've been sniffing around looking at ads for kayaks but I have the same problem with no storage in a flat. Would love to investigate the islands at Lomond. I messaged the marina at Balloch but they don't offer canoe storage there:( I'd be bricking it with an inflatable in case the bottom burst...

Cheers for the quick replies dudes ☺ Those sabre packs look ideal , I'm gonna look into those for sure. It's always true you get what you pay for, it's striking the right balance between crap and something bombproof.

Can any of you guys recommend a nice daypack for starting out and building a kit with? Ideally should be comfy for cycling too. Love the look of the maxpedition range but are a little pricey for starting out. Cheers!
