My Greatest Fear Comes True: Capsizing in Rough Seas 🌊
Kayaking the Wild Ep: 6 🛶 🌊
This day for me was the toughest, but in hindsight the most rewarding day of the trip; I flipped the kayak in rough seas. This was my biggest fear coming into the trip. As a novice to kayaking and being extremely remote, it was the one thing I really didn't want to happen. A set of three head high waves came through and the third flipped me over like I was a feather. I was fully submerged, had to jump out, flip my yak over and swim into shore... easier said than done. Especially being in one of the most highly concentrated areas of crocs and sharks in the world. Cape York Peninsula.
It was a very humbling experience, the footage doesn’t do it justice but it was a long night; wet, cold, sandy. Looking back I certainly took lessons from that day. Such as; always respect the ocean, have gear better tied down and waterproofed in the vessel, don't leave it till too late in the day to find a camp, the importance of staying calm when in an emergency situation.
This episode also touches on the ever-growing issue of plastics and trash in the ocean. It's a joint responsibility to look after our environment be more conscious of what we consume and how we interact with the world.
