inhlanzi Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 G'day Raiders I don't know if any of you have been following these two very very brave young men, but this is well well worth a look... http://www.crossingtheditch.com.au/index.html Kahunas of steel!!!!!!! The thought of spending the night on one of those past the shelf gives me the shivers... I wish them all the very best and I really hope they make it. cheers inhlanzi PS wonder if they are gonna do any fishing??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pelican Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 (edited) Fishing........ Fishing I hear you say. Mate they are just one big lure waiting for something to take a looksy. Serious serious kahunas and good luck to them as that is a serious amount of windage they are pushing Edited November 16, 2007 by pelican Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arpie Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 I just hope they have more luck than Andrew McCauley - altho they are doing a better route (instead of skirting icebergs ..... well, almost!) Also hope they tie themselves to the yak in case of being tipped out - if Andrew had done that, he may have survived or at least been found, for his family to have someone to bury! THe rear of that thing looks like a coffin! When it gets rough, they will hole up in it & take turns sleeping in it, too. Pretty sure I read from their site that they weren't planning on fishing!! Imagine if they got a marlin It would make them go faster, but in what direction!!?? Cheers Roberta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
