Scarlett Woman’s Maiden Paddle
Sunrise looking out through the Heads to the Tasman Sea
Got up at 4am this morning to get my new Valley Aquanaut out for the first time, managing to get out on the water for sunrise. I can’t stress this enough, if you haven’t been out for a sunrise on the Harbour, do yourself a favour and get out there one morning. It may be early, but it is one hell of a sight!
Watching the sun come up - magnificent
Early morning kayak side-profile - it still looks so sexy!
Needless to say the first paddle was gentle but fun, with the occassional stop for coffee and sausage sangers (thanks Sydney Harbour Kayaks!). More about the boat later, but for now a couple of quick pics. – FP
A recreation of a good forward stroke, just for the camera!
It's true, I DID need a tub of Vaseline and a shoe-horn to get in!
Now where the hell did my paddle go???

She’s a beaut! Is it supposed to sit that low in the water, though?

Kayak looks great, and it looks like you’re having fun in it.
Because of the Greenland paddle, I have to ask, shouldn’t you be upside down or laying down in the water or something?

Looks fantastic – can’t beat a good sunrise paddle – and with a new boat, thats my idea of perfection.
