Je te souhaite toute la réussite possible! N'hésite pas si tu as des questions sur le matériel à acheter ou sur la fabrication.

@@fartherout9887salut merci bah du coup je suis en France donc les lien que tu as mis pour le tissu ne fonctionne pas je peut pas me faire livrer mais je vais essayer de trouver un équivalent, ma question est comment tu as collé le velcro sur le kayak simplement avec la colle qui est déjà dessus ou une colle spécifique ?

J'avais essayé avec du velcro autocollant au début, ça a été un énorme échec, au bout de un ou deux mois ça se décollait et ça foutait de la colle partout. J'ai acheté du velcro qui normalement se coud et je l'ai collé avec de la colle aquasure: gearaid.eu/products/aquasure-repair-adhesive. Il me semble avoir acheté un tube de 250ml. Elle se vend sur pas mal de site, amazon, atelier de la mer... Il est possible que d'autres colles PVC pour pneumatique marchent mais aucune certitude. Attention par contre la colle ne marche pas avec tous les types de velcro. Regarde la composition du velcro (nylon vs polyester) et si la colle fonctionne avec ce matériel Dans le doute, le mieux c'est de faire un test avant de tout coller, avec un petit morceau de velcro

Je n'ai trouvé que ça pour la colle en quantité suffisante : www.tradeinn.com/diveinn/en/gear-aid-aquasure-fd-250ml-adhesive-tube/139806050/p À vérifier si le site est fiable, mais je crois que oui. Pour le tissu, j'ai acheté celui là en France: NOVELY Oxford Grand 600D Étanche 1 Lfm Polyester 600D Tissu Étanche Extérieur PVC par Mètre Extrêmement Indéchirable Robuste Couleur: 39 Rouge-Orange s08 amzn.eu/d/1G4V8HE

I considered using D rings as well. I think it's a great option, it's just a lot of Drings patches to glue if you want a good seal. And it might be tricky on the front and back section. The velcro is holding very well after more than 5 years of use. I have not noticed any part of the velcro coming off. But I had to do some testing before hand with a piece of velcro, a patch of PVC fabric similar to the kayak fabric and the glue I was intending to use. I found out that the Velcro tape I was using did not work with the glue. And had to get a different Velcro tape. I think one was polyester, the other was nylon. But I don't remember exactly. I hope this helps! Let me know if there is anything else you need to know during the project!

Oui, je peux faire des progrès en termes de poids. Surtout au niveau du sac et de la tente. Mais j'aime aussi la sécurité d'une tente 4 saisons pour ce genre de conditions. Et le confort d'un sac non ultra light. Et j'aime bien manger chaud 😅. Mais il est sûr que pour ma prochaine longue sortie, je vais soit m'alléger soit réduire les distances quotidiennes. Bonnes rando et bon bivouac !

I had to make a custom deck to fit the razor lite. You'll find a video of it on our youtube channel, the last video posted is about making the deck!

Hi! I've never tried the 393rl, so it's hard to say. I think that without a deck, kayaking in the Keys is probably not a good idea as you would take a lot of water in because of waves. If you're able to make a deck, then it will depend on how many miles you are able to paddle per day, and in what sea state you can paddle. I find wind to be the worst element for inflatable kayaks. Best is to try paddling long distances in different conditions and see how you feel.

Haha! Thanks! It's been a long time! Still the same kayak we took on lake Ouachita to Kyle's island 🏝️ I hope that you're doing great and that we'll get to meet when I come back to the US!

Brilliant job. I've got a sevylor pointer K2 which comes with zip in spray decks that are great. I don't know why they don't commercially make universal ones like you've made. Just to keep spray and drips from the paddle out. But again good job and like the way you put tubing in for the opening to hold the spray deck.

Thanks!! Yes I was surprised not to find any option on the market. So I used existing decks as inspiration, the K2 sevylor pointer among others.

Hi! Have you sent a message to this email address? fartherout.ls@gmail.com I don't see anything in my inbox or spam. I can't really post our itinerary here as it's too long. Try to email me again, and if it does not work, you could write your email address in the comments, I would send you the email, and then I would delete your comment with your address. Let me know what works best.

It was not easy to find places to stop/camp, at least on the Atlantic side of the Keys, as most of the shoreline is either Mangroves or private properties. We had to plan ahead and find spots on Google earth and made sure it would be allowed/tolerated to camp there, and when not possible, we booked a hotel room or a campsite. Hammock camping would have been tricky, there aren't so many big trees, and rarely close together, we're glad we took the tent. I think we used some deet-based product as repellent, it did good against mosquitos but not that good against no-see-ums. But it really helped though. I read somewhere that deet based product are damaging gear it comes in contact with, so that might be something to be careful about. Something we brought that we ended up not using was our sleeping bags, it was really hot at night and sleeping bags were useless.our sleeping bag liners were plenty enough for a May paddling trip in the Keys.

It really is a great Kayak! We also took it on the Atlantic ocean for over 100 miles in the Florida Keys, there is a video of it on our channel if you want to check it out.

@@fartherout9887 I'll definitely give it a watch! That's impressive

Thank you so much for your comment, it means a lot to hear how our kayaking trip inspired you. it makes the process of filming and sharing really worth it to know this. We started posting videos to share our adventures with our families and then to give more information on the great paths we have enjoyed. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions about the route, we are happy to share all we learned! Good luck, good health and happy paddeling!

Il a neigé le week-end juste avant mon arrivée. Et apparemment tout a fondu la semaine d'après. Je suis passé juste au bon moment pour voir les sommets enneigés ! 😊

Thanks! Yes, the tent and my pack are definitely on the heavy side. The tent is 2.8kg and the pack 2.3kg, I could save around 2 or 3kg with more adapted gear for solo hiking. that would help a lot.it's nice to carry a 4 season tent though (when it does not leak 🥴) as you can sleep in rough conditions. I also took too much food. I finished the hike with 600g of food.. A few things to improve but it was still amazing!

We made the deck ourselves with waterproof fabric Velcro and PVC pipes for the structure. It was not easy but doable for someone with no sewing experience like me. And we bought the yellow skirts, as they are regular sea kayak skirts. I got your email, I'll send you some info about what material we used and how we put everything together.

fartherout.ls@gmail.com Let me know if this doesn't work again and we'll find another solution for me to send you the info.

@FartherOut Still not working for me. I added my email address in the comments, but It might be held for spam.

Yes, i don't see your email address unfortunately. Try to add me on FB: *** Who knew it'd be so hard to just send an email 😅

Merci! Je partais le matin vers 7:30 et je m'arrêtais vers 18h. Avec assez peu de pause. Donc autour de 9h/10h de marche par jour sur 6 jours. Mais je n'allais pas très vite, avec mon sac assez lourd. Je comptais le faire en 5 jours aussi, mais heureusement j'avais bloquer 2 jours de plus au cas où.

Merci! Votre commentaire fait vraiment plaisir. Je sais jamais trop si ce sera réussi lors le montage et si ça communiquera la beauté des paysages et les émotions du moment. Surtout après avoir vu, revu et ajusté chaque moment plusieurs fois. C'est très sympa d'avoir des retours 🤗

Merci!! Et merci pour tous tes conseils lors de la préparation !!

This must have been an amazing adventure ! I read about Mission 22 online, that's really impressive. Did you make it to Houston ? I hope you are still finding peace while kayaking and that it keeps helping you fighting PTSD!

@@fartherout9887 I couldn't go up the west coast of Florida due to the enormous red tide, so I couldn't make Houston. I am a safety kayaker for Adventures Unlimited and the Trinity River Coalition.The journey renewed my faith in humanity with all the wonderful people I met on the trip. I had an orca breach the water 3 feet off my bow in Maine and to kayak wit 70 manatees on the Atlantic Coast of Florida was mind blowing.

Hello! Thanks for your comment! Our sleeping bags are "Bloody Mary" from Valandré. It is rated at -5°C confort. www.valandre.com/sleeping-bags/bloody-mary.html The manufacturer says the confort limit is more around -15°C. I think it was between -10 and -15 in the tent that night, and we had a fleece sleeping bag liner, and all our warm clothes. I think a 4 seasons tent really help with keeping heat inside. We slept pretty well. For -30°C, you can look at the other models from Valandré, it's a well known French brand for sleeping bags: www.valandre.com/sleeping-bags/odin-neo.html www.valandre.com/sleeping-bags/thor-neo.html When we were looking to buy our sleeping bags, I looked at Thermarest, Mountain Hardware, Feathered Friends, and Western Mountaineering. But we are really happy with our Valandré. I bought them thinking we would never sleep below -15. But our first night using them proved me wrong. Also, the sleeping bag felt a little damp in the morning, as the water leaving your body condensate inside the sleeping bag as the temperature is so cold outside. They had lost little bit of loft. I think that a second night in such temperature would have not been so pleasant. I searched online for solutions, one of them is to sleep in a vapor barrier liner (pretty much a big trash bag that does not let the humidity out), you are wet but your sleeping bag is not. That sounds pretty miserable. Or to sleep with a combination of sleeping bag and synthetic quilt so that the water condensate in the quilt. Just something to consider, as it will happen if you sleep several nights in a row. Hope this help ! Laponia sounds amazing ! I hope you'll have the best time and that you will stay warm !

Yes, that's correct! We did a first episode where we hiked from Samena to Luminy 🙂, you can find it on our channel. This fall, we will try to film a third episode from la Ciotat to cassis. After that, we plan to do some more episodes kayaking: Les Goudes - cassis La Ciotat - Cassis Le tour de Frioul And maybe le tour de Riou
