Still very early in the year....but already thinking about getting out on the Kayak for some fishing this Spring/Summer.
Been pawing over the kit.....some of which is quite old and seen some good wear years ago.
Checking over the Cag I noticed the wrist and neck seals (non replaceable) are perished and the material is not in the best of condition.
Seen a few miles on the water that one has.....so now retired to the bin
Ordered up a replacement in readiness (Peak Free Ride in Yellow) ...........might get up into the estuary for a bit of paddling fitness before getting out on open water.
peak freeride cag
Had a Cag very similar to this that I gave to my Daughter.....nice neck and wrist seals.....but soft neoprene...... rather than the Latex that can be a pain to get on and off.....even using talc....or a weak solution of washing up liquid and water.......I find it much more comfortable and easier.
Picked a nice bright and visible colour.........good to be seen by other bigger boat users.......or....God forbid...... SAR
Also need to replace my neoprene gloves.....looked but cant find them anywhere.....worth having especially in the colder months....even Spring and Summer on some days on the water.
Checked the VHF.....still working like a good'un.
Few other bits n bobs to sort out......will keep me busy in these times of troubles and woes
