Spring session

Following our stellar week of kayaking in the Upper Ruakituri the clock started.
I had two months of NZ spring before heading back to the Southern Ocean. The following are images from a few cool missions in the hills and Mick Hopkinton’s 60th birthday.

Currently I’m back onboard my second home completing a two month work stint around the coastline of the Antarctic Peninsula, South Georgia and the Falkland Islands.


January 2009 - HAYLEY SHEPHARD (New Zealand) will attempt to be the first person to sea kayak around South Georgia SOLO!
This remote Antarctic island has been circumnavigated three times previously by teams of paddlers, the first being New Zealand’s Adventure Philosophy team.
Hayley will face isolation, frigid seas and howling storms in her bid to fulfill a livelong dream. Hayley has spent the last two years intensively preparing herself for this unparalleled challenge.
Passionate about her natural world Hayley’s aims to raise the awareness of long ling fishing practices in the Southern Ocean. Fishing currently claims more Albatross lives than any other threat they face.

“Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power
and magic in it”.–Goethe

I’ll be there for that in the capacity of yacht crew, photographer and token sick guy!

Stay tuned, more to come as January 20th 2009 draws closer!
