Solo

After considering my fitness and skill levels with others who go out on their own and taking into account the fantastic conditions I felt it was time.
I had practiced several techniques of self rescue and although within a pool I felt that I had the ability to look after myself. A bomb proof roll is preferred but we cant always have what we want. Paddle float, radio and flares, smooth waters lets go for it.

Oh yes John Willacys recent success at the record of circumnavigation Anglesey also inspired me.
