More notoriety


Yet another radio interview about my commute, this one a whole  doco devoted to it on RN. As Mark Schroeder put it, how much fame can you get out of a 1km paddle?

RN Producer Joel “They named a paddle after me” Werner came over one morning a few weeks ago to record a half-hour doco for Radio National’s Off Track series. Bluebird day, the usual pleasant paddle, couple of anecdotes and yet more washing the boats.
Launching from home. A week later that pontoon had sunk. 


You can hear the thing here http://www.abc.net.au/radionational/programs/offtrack/the-kayak-commute/4316362. Four years into doing this run and it’s very bloody mundane, but seems to appeal to people nonetheless.

Some nice pix though. 
My nightly  seal launch every night, often a lot further to fall.
