    In June 2021, I set off to cycle, paddle board, and hike the length of Scotland. This video documents the paddle boarding section - a route that was just shy of 200km from Inverkip to Fort William
    Unfortunately I lost quite a bit of video footage from the paddling section, due to corrupt SD cards. But I've cobbled together the footage that I managed to recover. I hope you enjoy it!

    I'd glanced at a map of your route and had an image in my head of what the route would be like. But I was so wrong! That's something I enjoy about your adventures: seeing an area for what it is and your experiences of it.
    I'm glad this wasn't found footage from the depths of 'Scotland's Maelstrom'. I've seen some images of those whirlpools and they are quite terrifying! Again, I had no idea these existed in the UK.
    It's been a pleasure to have followed your complete triathlon. Massive congratulations! Here's to your next adventure.

    It's a little known fact that a lot of the coastline and seascapes of Scotland were actually inspired by the natural, rugged beauty of Barry docks.

    Man i wish i wasn’t disabled to the point of not managing to get out of bed so i could do stuff like this, i still try to paddleboard when i can but it gets harder and harder and i’m worried someday i will just have to stop, watching this was so inspiring and incredible

  • @davidalexander287
    @davidalexander287 Před rokem +2

    Last year your CWT videos inspired me to complete the CWT despite I only started hiking 9 months before and only the WHW undet my belt. I did stay in the Schoolhouse Bothy 😁
    However there is no way I would try this, probably spend more time looking up at the paddle board.
    Fantastic achievement which I thoroughly enjoyed watching.

Funny to see I’m not the only one to bark at seagulls (queue 10 minute break from Mad Sarah’s video to research Corryvreckan whirlpools), then as soon as I saw those sunglasses hanging precariously I thought you were taking a chance then boop in they fell 😂 Looking forward to your next adventure.

That channel, Simon the bloke canoed thru. So I do recognize that area. But in my eyes you have her heart with you. She makes me smile to see so much of her and hear your beautiful voice (an antics lol) narrating Scottish glory. Thank you for allowing me to see it through yours eyes and heart. Just wish I could hug you and say thank. This old heart is astonished at what you have achieved and your smile warms my eyes to see you do it. Awaiting another when possible.

    Brilliant, brilliant , brilliant! What a feat. I've watched your CWT twice now as I plan to do it next year and had been waiting patiently to see the paddle board section. I can't imagine even attempting that. That water can be very rough. I'm a Scot but live in the Seattle area now but am constantly drawn back to Scotland like yourself. When the weather is great there is no other place as good. Fell in love with your humour from the very first video and the seagull squawking had me chuckling. What a year 2021 was for you..one more Brilliant! Lol

I remember once paddling down the side of luing (I think) it was all calm, got round the bottom, it blew up something bad, and having to land early, 3 of us huddling under a cliff face drinking whiskey (we had planned to camp, just not there)😂
