Sea kayaks for sale




The sea kayaking season has started and Simon's Loch Sunart paddle on Sunday had a hardy group of 5 paddling from near Glenborrodale to almost Lochaline. Having torn a ligament in my ankle the weekend before last whilst on a Club coach weekend at that kayakers' centre of excellence Glenmore Lodge (where it was deepest winter with masses of snow and freezing cold - and greta skiing at Cairngorm) I did not make the paddle and sulked at home in frontof the computer. Having been enthused by the weekend and getting to grips with the new BCU paddlesport awards I bought the Mallaig and District Canoe Club a new and more memorable domain name (mallaigcanoeclub.co.uk) and whipped up a couple of pages to add to Tony Laidler's excellent existing site with a silly address. The club has a a couple of sea kayaks they want to sell as we need a bigger boat for the summer evening adult paddles, so if you're after a bargain sea kayak check out the for sale section of the website.

Back at Ach na skia Croft we are getting on with painting the Lodges and getting everything up to scratch for this year's guests. Last weeks guests couldn't believe their luck with the fantastic weather and the Cottage visitors said it was the best place they had ever stayed in, so we were happy with that!
