Re: New to kayaks what winter clothing do you recommend

Bringing this thread back from the dead :up: I've been wearing these waterproof socks the last couple of seasons. A bit spendy, but made in Australia and keep your feet warm and dry for all sorts of yak and land based activities. https://www.outdoornature.com.au/dexshell-waterproof-wading-socks-with...

Re: All round white light....DIY

Re: Has Anyone Been Following This?

There was a piece on ABC's Landline about the plums recently. The trials showed they could dramatically reduce obesity in overweight rats.
