Yeah, I live in the Mid-Western United States...do you live in Egland...
The weather is crazy. The other day I was watching a video of just a regular guy that spends time outdoors, he said that he noticed that the sun was coming up in a diffrent position. (something is effecting the sun or the earth)
How did you guess I was from the U.S.A. I surmise that you might not be Amercian because you refered to a guy as a bloke...thats a word that not many people use!
Ye I'm in england think I'll leave though as soon as the season ends getting fed up with this place
As to you being in US I think it was from a comment you left under somebodies post I was reading cant remember exactly now
Bloke is a commonly used word over here
Do people that live in England need a passport to move to other european countries? Do you plan to travel by boat? Do you need to get a handful of special permits (like registering your boat in another country)?
No passport needed when travelling in the EU , yes gonna sail out of here im a bit like a snail now I take my house with me :) I should register the boat to get an s.s.r. number so they can confirm ownership abroad but its not a legal requirment here I dont think I'll bother a few countries require smthing like boatsman papers like a driving licence for a boat which I also dont have so im just gonna claim blisfull ignorance and hope for the best from talking with other people it seems nobodies bothered when it comes to small boats like mine
Do you have an idea which direction that you are going to sail? Also about how close will you be from shore (will you be able to see land)? Will yo be traveling by wind/battery backup?
I like that.
Thought about going up north along the shore towards shetland islands probable keeping within a few miles from shore not getting too close though its more dangerous near shore stronger currents possibility of being blown on the wrong part off shore like cliffs etc. Then from shetland across to norway thats about 150-200 miles so a day or two at full sea if all goes well and I do go that way. I might get the internal engine going but will mainly be using sails even if I do.wind is free :) and its quicker that way. I have solar panels so I charge as I go but thats just for lights.
Do you suppose that you will encounter ice in the water once you hit the open sea? And I assume that your kayak will be able to travel with you? Can you travel faster by wind than internal engines? Also I am glad that you liked the picture!
I hope not I think its too far south for that but with this weird weather .... I tie the kayak on the reling so it should be fine might add windage in bad weather but i'll have to see. Its an old design engine as the boat itself was built in the seventies built more for endurance than performance I often find that older hi quality things are way more relaible than modern crap spiked with electronics the boat is of much more solid build than her modern equivalents the make and model has made a legendary name for itself over the last 50 years its a hurley 22 people have been around the globe in them.have you ever been sailing?
