Re:Sweden Trip

<t>Been to this area twice. The first time paddled from Turku in Finland through the Alland Islands and the Stockholm archipelago to Stockholm - second time stayed on the Swedish side. The infamous Mary and a fireman were on trip. Have great charts too – enjoy the free Saunas on the Islands! Feel fr...

Re:Sweden Trip

<r>Yes - I do know where you can rent or get guided trips.

The carfully hatched plan is to paddle out from Burtonport on Wednesday morning (27th December) - route depends on time of arr...

ISKA Blog site

<t>Not as an alternative but as an additional \'tool\' has ISKA thought about putting up a club blog site so that folks could easily upload photos and keep an ISKA \'diary\' of trips and events? Short slide shows and presentations could be linked to the blog too. Maybe in msn myspaces? <br/> <br/> T...

Navigation

<t>Interesting excercise - I\'d have brought my GPS. <br/> <br/> What about getting run down by a larger faster boat - anyone have an audible warning \'foghorn\' with them? I\'ve been in a similar situation near the Copelands - and hearing the sound of the fast ferry approaching can loosen the bowel...

Re:Wanted - camper van

I\'ve got a small one too! Try http://www.devonconversions.com/

Toyota sunrise - even smaller than Eileen\'s. Got it out of the motorhome magazine - lots of good vans second hand in there.
