Hiya Ziggy.

 

What a beauty,new paint job, bit of TLC, and off you go:D

That is a sit inside jobby Zig.

Have you had any experience of paddleing before mate ??

You will need to get hold of a spray skirt, or do you have one already.??

If you have no experience of a sit inside you realy MUST find someone to show you the basics, and how to master a recovery roll (Eskimo roll )

All part of the fun, and a MUST for keeping you safe.

Our tupper ware logs, are a bit easier, fall off, and climb back on:D

Once you have done the cosmetics you want to do, you can set about rigging her to fish.

What do you think you will want to take out, as far as fishing gear is concerned??

Will pay you to add some bouyancy inside the lady.

 

Nice one Ziggy, look forward to seeing her progress. :cool:

Couple of sites to look at Zigs.

 

www.Kayakfishingstuff.com

www.paddle-fishing.com On this one at the top of the page, click articles, scroll down to basic rigging , some ideas there for you.

 

There are links on both sites, all worth looking at, for tips and advice.

Have fun.

Hi Ziggy, love the paint work! .

 

Have you been trained to use a sit inside yak though? You could find yourself in a very dangerous situation if you can't eskino roll, bail it out and all that stuff we sit on top yakkers can safely ignore.

hi yy & jaffa ( are you really teal'c from stargate sg1 jaffa ? )

 

glad you guys like the yak, i love it & havn't even got it wet yet.

 

have got ideas for paint job, involving fluorescent paints & go faster stripes.

 

great sites yy, will come in very useful.

 

i remember going under in a sit inside under a wier during my youth, i think after the first time, i went back in & did it for fun. i had just come to terms that i had forgotten a portion of my youth when mrs becky said last night that she was worried when we lived in wales, that i used to go off sea yakking with my mates, DOH, i had forgot that too. i must stress again kids, dont do booze & other things ( take note, snatcher )

 

mind you, did catch sewage virus that lasted 4 months.

 

how is the sewage situation these days ? are there yakkers against sewage as well as surfin dudes ?

[Zigs]

if the yak experiences are hallucinations or memory implants like in total recall, then im dead as soon as i go out there i guess.

 

i got a spray skirt, buoyancy jacket & a push the water stick all ( including the yak ) for £117. which is less than i was expecting to pay for the yak alone.

[Zigs]

has any one read " we can remember it for you wholesale "

 

recon that is the sci fi book total recall is based on
