SEAWARD KAYAKS AUSTRALIA DIRECTOR ROSS BOARDMAN -AT THE NEW SEAWARD KAYAK FACILITY IN HUSKISSON JERVIS BAY.

JBK Directors, Ross and Janet Boardman has established a new facility for the assembly and completion of the Seaward TX Thermoformed Sea Kayak Range. The Import and Australia Wide distribution of Seaward Kayaks is now a reality after undergoing extensive research over several years ,and an essentail visit to the Seaward Kayak Facility on Vancouver Island in BC Canada.

In an agreement between Seaward Kayak Director Steve Ree and Seaward Australia's Ross Boardman, Tyson Desmarais ( Seaward Mfg Foreman) flew to Australia to assist in the set up and initial assembly of the first shipment , highlighting the need for quality control and techniques used in manufacture that has set the Seaward Kayak Range aside from other brands.

"It seemed an obvious choice to Janet and Myself to partner with Seaward Kayaks in Canada", said Ross Boardman " as they are the industry leader in terms of design ad technology, and it was in fact this technology and the advancements that Steve Ree and the Seaward Team have made in thermoform technology that attracted us to the range".

There are a number of reasons why we have undertaken the assembly and completion in Jervis Bay as the Carbon emmissions from shipping have been reduced by almost 80% as we have been able to ship larger qtys combined with the Recyclable Nature of the new ABS Substrate, we have reduced our impact on our environment significantly.

Complete assembly ,testing and distribution is now undertaken in our Factory in Huskisson using new state of the art pneumatic applicators and proprietary adhesives that become part of the ABS Substrate thereby bonding the parts as one. All accessories are genuine Seaward and Kajak Sport Parts essentially providing a Canadian Designed work of art with an unparalleled finish and quality here in Jervis Bay.

Seaward Kayaks also manufacture the highest quality Composite Sea Kayaks and the Legedary Nigel Foster Kayaks, giving us a range of Sea Kayaks unsurpassed in the industry today.

Keep an eye out for the Seaward Kayak Range in a Professional Kayak Store in your region as we have identified a number of exclusive dealers to service your "Need to go Seaward".

JBK Paddlers Club Paddle

After a week of high wind and big swell, it was a relief to be able to get out on the water for the official first paddle of the JBK Paddlers Club. The forecast of southerly winds encouraged us to head down into Booderee National Park for a launch at Iluka, with the intention of heading out towards Bowen Island, with a morning tea break on Murrays Beach before heading back.
Iluka Perfection - JBK Paddlers Club Paddle

Bill, Sandra, Wayne and Mel were all super keen as we packed our boats on the beach, especially as the wind was calm and Jervis Bay was looking its exceptional best, with only a small wave breaking along the shoreline.Sandra & Bill - Open Water

A very gentle following sea allowed us to make fast progress as we made a beeline towards the northern tip of Bowen Island, all eyes peeled for the resident dolphins or perhaps even a seal or a migrating humpback whale. As we approached the island a rolling swell coming through the heads made life a bit more interesting, but it had died off enough that we all felt safe as we passed the tip of the island and headed towards Point Perpendicular for a few hundred meters.
No doubt we all would have enjoyed the open water crossing of the heads, but everyone was keen for a cuppa and some of the famous JBK carrot cake so we turned around and made our way back towards Murrays Beach, taking advantage of the crystal clear water on the inside coast of the island to spot hundreds of fish and even a couple of rays. As usual Bowen Island was full of its resident bird life, with a couple of lazy Pelicans watching us cruise past.

A relaxing rest on the beach left the group recharged and ready for the return leg, where we planned to hug the coastline, again to make the most of some of the clearest water imaginable. Coming past Murrays Beach boat ramp, sure enough a pod of our freindly dolphins made an appearance, coming quite close to our kayaks, but not staying still for a photo. Yet more dolphins were spotted by Bill and Sandra off Hole in the Wall.
Melisa Hanley - Off Bowen Island
The pace slowed noticably along past Scottish Rocks and Bristol Point as everyone took in the beautiful scenery of the northern shore of Booderee National Park until a nice gentle landing back at Iluka meant the end of the trip and an analysis of the stats thanks to Wayne's GPS (13.6klm, average speed 5kph including stops, good performance team!).

Hopefully this will be the start of heaps of great adventures for the JBK Paddlers Club, and thanks to our very first club paddlers for a great morning on Jervis Bay.

JBK - Thankyou Mr East Coast Low

I hope everyone got out to find a few waves over the ANZAC day weekend. As the swell hit here on the south coast, Bonnie and I had a great couple of days training.

With a forecast for solid easterly swell and westerly winds we headed out for the dawn surf down Bendalong way. The waves were on and we got some great rides as John captured the moment with his camera.

Tracy Gibson - Mega Neutron RV

Bonnie Tregenza - Mega Prowler

I would have to say these were some of the best waves I have had all year. The swell couldn't have come at a better time as we prepare to head to Noosa for some competition practice and some variety in our training.

Stay tuned for the Mega Surf Kayak team road trip!!

JBK - School Programs

The month of March sees the Team at JBK busy at work conducting various experience programs for schools from as far away as the Mid North Coast, the Blue Mountains and the ACT. The ability to tailor and cater for the Outdoor Education Experience needs of Schools and Universities is one of the reasons why JBK is the Leading National Training Provider for Australian Canoeing.

Last week we spent 3 Days on a self contained Sea Kayaking Expedition with Alfred Deakin High School from the ACT. This school has a fantastic Outdoor Education Program and the students are of the highest calibre. Prepared to paddle when necessary , laugh when require and even sing a little ( ok, a lot ), to make the trip all it can be.


Bushcamping
is the brief we work to where the students are required to commune with nature and each other, with no outside influences. This trip was one of our best yet. Perfect weather, heaps of Sun,a little wind, a little rain, and a lot of fun, even Rick, Rob and Trent the residing teachers had a ball. Thanks guys for a great experience you really made it a cracker.

JBK - 5 Blokes and a River

Just for a laugh, it was decided that 5 Local JB guys would tackle the wilds of Clyde River, Yadboro to Shallow Crossing. Although the trip took about twelve hours and two days , it proved to be an incredibly picturesque adventure with long stretches of comfortable paddling. log jams and much dragging through the gravel races and small rapids.

Roger, Jason and Ross - Doing abit more dragging across a causeway.
Starting in theUpper runnable sections at Yadboro, the river quickly runs in to a remote wilderness that would be a difficult walk out if required providing great scenery and tall timbers and long shallow running pools of beautifully clear water.
Steve Canon going for broke (Grade 6? Rapids
Each section stepping down to the next with a small race or rapid, some runnable, most not, but the boys laughed and rammed into each other as we made our way to Shallow Crossing 25km away.
Jason Andre - as laid back as ever negotiating a log jam.
7 hours of pretty continous paddling saw us at the upside down bridge north of Brooman for our campsite and a great fire kept the light rain off us throughout the evening. Waking to more light rain we quicky packed up and hit the river at 8 am for another full day of quality scenery and intimate river environment to Brooman then a maze of 4 foot round logs and much portaging to the running section just south to last 8km of long uninterupted pools to Shallow Crossing.
Able Walsh / R2D2 (Barell ) / and the view downstream

This trip requires some good planning, as the car shuttle to the starting point is about 1.5 hours, and some food is always a good idea Able, although Maccas at Ulladulla saved you on day one.


After 26km of paddling and crashing - Shallow Crossing


The quality of the experience is sensational on this trip, great scenery, but there is lack of good campsites on the upper stretch, so be prepared to stop when you find one. We found the kayaks at around 3.7 mtrs were optimal as they could negotiate the rock gardens more easily than the longer type kayaks. Plastic is essential as the river is a graveyard for fibreglass canoes, they simply wont cut it, and be prepared to have some serious wear on your kayak or the one you borrow from an old friend.............................

Cheers

24 February 2009

JBK - Just a perfect day.

It dawned on me today whilst paddling my New Wilderness Tempest 170 Pro out past Bowen Island, that I had owned in the last twenty years of Sea Kayaking, ( 15yrs of which operating JBK ) personally, 11 Brand New Sea Kayaks , and literally hundreds of Sea Kayaks over the years in our hire and tour operation fleet.
New Composite Tempest 170 Pro

Such a realisation gets you wondering whether there is really many differences from model to model, or whether I had succumbed to the bright and colourful gel coat or the newest in comfort outfitting yet again. At JBK we are dealing with so many choices now on a daily basis with Specifications, layups, colour options , rudder fittings, varying price range, quality and usage options.

The fact is that, there are marked differences in each craft, some worth noting, some not so, but for just a few hours today,I found myself taking in the water movement around me, the clarity of the water, the temperature of the sea and air, and the sureal atmosphere of the bushfire smoke that moved in with the brisk southerly change cloaking JB and the 9 or so warships that cruised nearby.

Although I had done it thousands of times before, Janet and I simply went "Sea Kayaking". There was no talk of boat length, shape, or style, we just paddled and chatted about the Wallaby that joined us on the beach and took it all in. Coffee and Lunch on Murrays Beach and a couple of Eskimo Rolls on the way home.
Wallaby joined us on Murrays Beach for morning tea.

The day was perfect and I remembered today, after an extremely busy summer of facilitating kayaking at JBK for thousands kayakers, why I love this Sport. Kayaking is a lifestyle recreation and the gear just allows you to do it, not better, maybe a little more comfortably, maybe a little quicker than your last kayak, but don't get too tied up in the Specs of your kayak, enjoy it for what it is. There is far to much emphasis on boat specs and equally to many opinions as to what constitues a good sea kayak. Sure, good advice is always important but one should exercise caution as to where that advice is sought from.

On your next paddling adventure, take a good loook around you, soak it up, it is incredible where the kayak allows you access to. I am looking forward to the upcoming Autumn and Winter, as the seasons change, as the wildlife and sea conditions vary, and as the colour of the sky goes from bright blue to a more subtle aqua tone, remember how fortunate we are to be able to access and immerse ourselves in our waterways.

Regards
Ross Boardman / JBK
