Rocks & Wood

Don't go together! Went out for a short paddle from Oneroa to Onetangi today and got carried away with rock gardening again. Despite squeezing through narrow gaps and trying the impossible I didn't damage the hull until paddling back and found myself stranded on a rock in the middle of nowhere! Nice clear water for 15m all around and I end up on top of a rock. :( Kekeno now sports another 1m long gorge on her hull, I don't think its gone into the wood but will need to be repaired at some stage.

While out there I was also experimenting with camera setup and placement for videos. An example can be found by clicking on the photo below:

Unfortunately the camera only records 30 seconds at a time and it cut off just as I was about to make way over the fall. Yes I did manage it but had to back out soon after since the tide was to far out to go all the way through the arch.
