progress on the paddle project has been slowed somewhat this last few days by a spell of fine weather, the Cornwall Sea Kayak Symposium, some bike riding, getting mashed in some large surf and essential outdoors work on my house… It’s not stalled completely however, a large roll of the black stuff arrived today, yum, and the plugs are just about finished.. I just have some final cleaning up and polishing to do before I bite the bullet and start making the moulds…. all will be written up in due course.
