    That is such a shame about the lost footage. Love this part of Scotland. Often look at Lismore Lighthouse and its bridge. Often wondering why as I don't think the next island is linked to Lismore or it appears that way from the ferry. We walked the Dogs down to Kerrera Ferry and it is the only time I have seen a Bin ferry. Really nice sea conditions from the footage that you did get. Enjoyable as always.

    Your video's always make me feel like i'm right there in the moment.
    I have a few questions if you don't mind...
    - do you ever encounter sharks.
    -How would you rate your tent.
    -What material is your kayak made of.
    Thanks again for all these great video's.

    Fantastic video! What a great winter conditions. Loved those camp spots.. Something I would love to get to in future. Sea kayak looks like brilliant thing to explore those islands but I would need to take my two dogs with me so I think I will go for pack raft at this stage of my life. Do you think pack raft is something just to cross the shorts distances on water or can someone attempt bigger trip like you do on it? Thanks Jonas

    • @getwet501
      @getwet501  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you. I'm not sure about a pack raft, I have no experience of such things, but yea, sea kayaks are great for such explorations, but no use with a dog!

    • @getwet501
      @getwet501  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi, I just use a gas canister ( Propane/Butane cold temp mix) and a single burner, nothing fancy. Always carry some spare gas and a small emergency burner as well, so guess I could get two pots going at once, but I never do that.

    Just one suggestion... lower the volume of the back ground music please!.

    • @getwet501
      @getwet501  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you... its a tricky one!.. how the sound balance comes across can depend on your device my phone , tv and PC all sound a bit different. I know some of my stuff in the past the music is too loud for the voice, and I think my most recent two videos it's perhaps too quiet. I thought this one wasnt too bad.Some people ask for no music which would be great, and much easier, but the sound of the sea and the wind and the heavy breathing gets a bit too much and seems to be very variable as the Gopro pics it up, water in the microphone housing I suspect... I will keep trying, cheers😁
