Our intention was to paddle from Dell Quay but the traffic was horrendous so headed for Felpham beach. The waves were quite strong coming into the shore and we had two failed attempts at getting into the water where I got a soaking. It was quite an experience trying to battle the waves but I reckon we did pretty well for a first attempt. Half an hour was enough though as we felt like we weren't getting anywhere.

Headed for Chichester Canal basin and, apart from the fact that we really should have put the skeg (fin) on the kayak as this would have helped immensely with steering, we had a very nice paddle down to Donnington and back. So the day wasn't a total disaster!
