30 years of drifting about in sea kayaks (and a bit of driving in the Outback)
This year (2009) as I turn 70 there is likely to be less kayaking trips, and more short walking trips, and of course 4WD trips.
(I am more than happy to include new trip reports on my website.) 

    THIS WEBSITE WILL PROBABLY CEASE TO EXIST ABOUT MAY 2013
I am quite angry over the way I have been treated by ServerSea (who host this site) that I am not intending to resubscribe.
I only started this website back in 1994 as a bit of fun - but I am quite amazed at the number of people who have read it, and I thank all those that have sent me messages informing of such. My life has been enriched by sea kayaking, and hopefully yours has been, or will be.
My email address will also cease to exist when this website goes.

This whole website is available on CD if anyone would like their own copy. I'm thinking of $10 to cover the cost of the CD and case and postage. You will need to do this in the next month or so.
