Read more... “Not a Standard Miller’s!” – A Rescue StoryTuesday, 16 March 2021 13:54 It’s not easy to catch a rolling, runaway single ski in 30kt of gusting wind – and as they attempted to grab it, Alex and his doubles partner lost their balance and fell into the water. By the time they’d remounted, the single ski was gone – blown away by the strengthening near-gale. They turned and paddled back upwind to find their buddy. Read more... The NSRI's "Spirit of Surfski II" RIB heads out to sea in 30kt of southeasterCredits: Simon McDonnell Fatal Surfski Accident in Cape TownWednesday, 03 March 2021 12:08 Accident reports are easy to write when the story ends happily, but this one didn’t and it’s with a very heavy heart that I’m writing this, with a view to learning what we can from it.

Paddler Rescued - Thanks to the NSRI and to SafeTRXWednesday, 15 July 2020 09:13 When the NSRI found Duncan MacDonald, he was approximately 6km off Smitswinkel Bay, drifting rapidly further offshore. Gale-force squalls whipped sheets of spray off the waves, reducing visibility almost to nothing. What Happened? Given the small size of the surfski community, there’s always intense interest whenever there’s a rescue. What happened? What did they do wrong? What can we learn from it? Clearly there are lessons to be learnt from any mishap – so here’s a description of what happened, shared with the permission and cooperation of the folks involved in the hope that we might all learn from this Gale force downwind - a paddler passes Roman Rock Lighthouse on the Reverse Miller's Run in Cape TownCredits: Simon McDonnell Paddler-Aid for Covid-19 VictimsFriday, 24 April 2020 11:41 Durban – As the continued coronavirus lockdown grips the country, Canoeing South Africa will host a 24 hour Canoeing4COVID-19 event this weekend as a way to raise funds for members of the broader paddling community that have been badly affected by the lockdown.

Help!” The shouts penetrated the sound of the howling wind and crashing waves – and even through the noise it was obvious from the tone of his voice that something was seriously wrong. I turned and headed back upwind. Read more... Extreme Conditions on a Miller's Run - what we all live for!Review: Standard Horizon HX870 Handheld VHF Radio - UPDATEDTuesday, 03 March 2020 14:43 Many paddlers use Personal Locator Beacons, or tracker apps like SafeTrx on their mobile phones. But handheld VHF radios are also a great choice to consider – especially when they’re DSC-capable like the Standard Horizon HX870E. Read more... The Standard Horizon HX870E Handheld VHF RadioCredits: Rob Mousley/Surfski.info Fennix Swordfish S - First LooksMonday, 24 February 2020 12:01 I finally got my hands on a demo Fennix Swordfish S this weekend and did two Miller's Runs in succession to see if I could feel any difference in handling between the 2018 Swordfish S and the new Fennix model. Conditions were challenging: False Bay was covered in whitecaps, whipped by a combination of a 25-30kt southeaster and small, confused seas. The result? I definitely want to spend more time in this boat. Read more... The old and the new Fenn Kayaks Swordfish SPaddler Escapes Unhurt as Shark Attacks SurfskiThursday, 26 December 2019 10:30 The shark smashed like a freight train into Roger Swinney’s surfski in an explosion of noise and spray, knocking him off into the water. “I managed to get back on the ski,” he said, “but I fell off again and as I remounted the second time, I saw the swirl and tips of the shark’s fins. “I didn’t see it clearly, but from the force of it and the movement in the water, it looked big!” Read more...

But that’s what happened. Read more...

I could only laugh in reply – the runs were so clean, the water so clear, so warm, this truly is paddling paradise. I’m here as a guest of Shaw and Partners, the sponsors of the $100,000 Shaw and Partners WA Race Week in Perth. Monday was an “off-day” in the weeklong racing series – and that meant an opportunity to sample one of the local downwind paddling routes. Read more...
