Relaxing drone footage of McCallum Bay, Auckland, New Zealand
Had an awesome day out with the family, Some paddle boarding at Waitawa Regional park, Kawakawa bay. Then a bit of a "tiki tour" around Pakihi Island on our 4M True Kit Inflatable. A beach stop at McCallum Bay where I shot this footage and a blat back to Mataitai bay.
If you enjoyed this footage, let me know in the comments and I'll film some more.

The Yakima Showdown Kayak loader required you to feed the strap through the retaining points, which is a bit of a pain. I found some Double J hooks for $0.66 each from a company called Cookes in NZ. Making it easier to strap your yak on.

How easy is it to load and unload a large kayak with the Yakima Showdown? The Yakima Showdown (yes they like dramatic names) is a roof rack attachment that aids loading your kayak. This allows you to load a kayak at around waist height then easily lift it above the roof. I've added one thing that improves this product.

It's a question that gets asked a lot, especially in winter or colder months. Dressing for comfort and safety is very important and can make a huge difference to how enjoyable your time on the water is, and how long you're comfortable being out there. AVOID COTTON - Cotton Kills. Watch this video to see my recommendations.

      I'll do it in a couple of weeks (all packed away). I just had a piece of foam i cut to the size of the groove in the base of the battery. I used some heavy duty double sided tape to fix that to the chill pod. I got 4 lashing hooks www.vikingkayaks.co.nz/shop/accessories/parts+%26+hardware/lashing+hook+%26+screws+1826 and screwed them in place to hook the bungee too. Originally i had the battery running sideways, but changed it so I could see the battery level indicator and more easily reach the magnet.

    Nice video, I'm a fan of your posts on Facebook. But, one question: are you allowed to have your light in strobe mode?

    • @snappagrabba
      @snappagrabba 4 місяці тому

      Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I have always use my light in flashing mode to conserve battery. I usually launch just on first light and mostly in areas where there is very little to no boat traffic. As I am out for 5-8hrs, the flashing setting saves me a lot of battery use and I think in 2 years i've changed the batteries once. It took a while to find, but it seems the rules say I'm wrong. Between sunset and sunrise a kayak must display a white light. It can be a 360º (fixed white light or a torch, but a flashing light or strobe is not acceptable (strobe lights are used to mark a man overboard). The white light should be bright enough to be seen 2 miles (about 4km) away. Colours other than white are not allowed. BUT I did see that strobe is 120 or more flashes a minute. I'm sure my light is about 60?? per minute, but i'll check it..

It can tend to roll it's way through the water.

    Great video, the variety of fishing tackle in Japanese stores are to the point where you get lost. Bear in mind that even though Joshuya us a chain of stores they don't stock the same stuff. Each one sort of specialises in a certain field a bit more than another one. For example the Shibuya store you'll find more Daiwa Certates and Saltiga reels with more saltwater poppers than the Ikebukuro store.
