My Sea Kayak (B)log
Welcome to my Sea Kayak (B)log: saturnbull.co.uk. I log all my Sea Kayak trips on saturnbull rather than use a paper log. It also makes a good repository for some of my photographs, taken whilst out and about on the water. I hope you find it interesting and informative. If not then too bad! It is what it is...

HCC Evening Session

Wednesday morning, out of frustration with the garage "who will not be...Continue reading→
DCKC Lomond night

With Loch Long being a deep water loch, this oil terminal could take oil tankers up to 324,000 tonnes. The oil was discharged here and pipped all the way across Scotland,...Continue reading→
Kilcreggan – Cake & Coffee Denied

Setting off from the Kirk Brae slipway, I headed into the wind and swell. By the time I'd reached Rhu narrows, the wind was coming at me from the south...Continue reading→
