Tag: <span>zandvlei</span>

I saw this boat on Zandvlei at the weekend. It has a fiberglass hull, and you sit in front of the mast and steer with your feet (much as you would with a Kayak). That tiny little homemade sail was not at all effective, but I am sure that with a bigger sail it could be quite a fun experience.

I asked the person that helped to launch the boat, and he told me that the original mast had been stolen so this was a trial of a newhomemade sail. Perhaps a little more time in the workshop is in order…

Zandvlei on a still autumn morning. A very peaceful place to take a walk.

Somebody paddeling on Zandvlei early in the morning on a very still day. The temperature ended up peaking at about 38 deg C (about 100 deg F).
