The Youth Scholarship circumnavigation of the Isle of Man completed in 4 days this week, totally self-sufficient, wild camping along the way. A few pics from the journey...
The first Puffins of the year, bobbing about by the kayaks
various weather and sea conditions
stunning wildlife
with remote camping on pebble beaches, the odd shipwreck for company
watching the search and rescue helicopter at work whilst eating the evening meal at sunset
then the final push and seeing the finish come into sight...
...and the joy at completing the Circumnavigation of their Isle of Man by sea kayak!
Congratulations to everyone, the six Youth Scholarship individuals who have progressed so far, Sam Murphy the Expedition Team Leader, and Tony and Martin part of the leadership team.
The guys are now closer to readiness for the main expedition to Vancouver Island in July.
