I haven't read everything on your site, but I gather you were using paddling and the water to help fight your "black dog". I have also done this over the years, even just to get out and alone with nature or share a common interest with friends or new friends you meet. I noticed you have a Liquid Logic XP10, and I have been thinking of getting one also, so wanted to get your ideas of what you think about it. Mainly I do flat water, but would like the capability to do some light white water if the chance came. I am about 6 ft 2 inches (old scale) and 112 Kilos (give or take - depending on the meal!!) I have researched the kayaks available and it seems to fit the bill and be high quality. Also is the "BadAss" seating really as good as they say it is? On another note, I live in Dubbo and we are having a 4 day paddle on the Macquarie River from Wellington to Dubbo to Narromine on the 1st to the 4th of December if you are interested, or would like to advertise on your site. Some information can be found at http://www.womdomnom.com/ Look forward to your reply Cheers Phill Hello Sean,

My husband is recovering from an openbook fracture of the pelvis and we are thinking about trying kayaking. Do you have any suggestions re kayak seats, legroom etc that he should keep in mind to make sitting as comfortable as possible. Thanks Jenny Hi Fat paddler,

We've had our kayaks for a few weeks now and I have a lesson with SHK and can't wait. The Sydney waters are wonderful and it will be so good to get real close (but hopefully not in) these beautiful waters. After reading a few of the Lane Cover River kayak club's newsletters, I decided a sit-on was the way to go, as I don't like spiders and don't like the idea of an eskimo roll! I'm hoping after a year or so of yaking up and down Middle Harbour I'll become a thin paddler! Sue Hi FP,
