Gulf Islands Solo Trip: Part 2: 'Paddling' Deep Cove SUP - This was the last day of Northerly winds so it was perfect for my crossing and my paddle south towards the gap in between North and South Pender.

Throughout the whole trip anyone I came across including animals, were very surprised to see me.

American made and hand crafted canoe and oar paddles since 1967 and now a focus on paddles for the fastest growing watersport in the world. All of the SUP paddles are designed in house and the chief designer just happens to be the owner of the company. Zac Kauffman tells us that "most of our designs come mainly out of trial and error, but with many paddlers in the company it's quite simpler to design, build and test." What's new for Sawyer is a focus on racing and after picking up new team rider Mo Freitas they have definitely starting to make a name for themselves in the SUP world.
