deep water trials

Post by Captain Pugwash »

last of the coracle journals. deep water trials at the cottage. she handled better than i thought she would. the locals were scratching their heads as i slowly sculled past. as for my inlaws they think all englishmen are bonkers. so here is the last video.

i also ask if anyone might be willing to help. as i'am thousands of miles from wales and it's expensive to get flights. also my wife refuses to let me scull my way home. i'am trying to get further info from the welsh coracle centre but with no luck. i would love to get info on other designs ie dimentions and possible photo's.

Nice one CP!

The following is probably not much use I know, but, maybe worth an email?

You can always take some costume ideas from here!

Excellent...That looked great and it seems to go very well. Of course if that were a French Welshman he would have a sculling notch at the stern and do it his way, facing backwards :lol:
