I've gone 180mph on US Interstates on motorcycle more times than I can remember, I've averaged 140mph all night, every night all summer in a pack of 50 bikes, but kayaking in practically open ocean takes balls, if ya ask me. Nice!

Three people who LIVED. Great vid and adventure.

And here I was (at age 64) thinking that the 18 km paddle in my Necky Elaho from Sailors Bay (Middle Harbour) to the Pyrmont Bridge (Sydney Harbour) was a something of an adventure to plan. 😁😆 A great inspiration team, thank you.

Great movie. I bought the lime Seaward from you Aiden. It's great to see it crossing the Bass strait. One day I will do it myself .

Nice one!! Two of us did it early Jan 23 but going the other way, dodging the steady easterlies. Coffee every day for us, was pretty well non negotiable. Got across to Royden in 8 days, then as many rest days as you wanted after that. Brought back good memories of weather watching, and making those Crossing days! I even read that Gunns Limited book on Royden!! We stayed well clear of that bed though.....

Terrific video, well narrated, and edited and thoroughly enjoyable. I consider myself a confident and reasonably skillful sea kayaker but the thought of a bass strait crossing scares me. Not just the logistics, but the long crossings with no land in sight and the vagaries of weather. Cannot believe you caught up with a legend in Les Allen....Wow. You guys are amazing. A trip that will stay with you forever. Thanks so much for sharing your journey. I totally enjoyed watching.

Thank you team for sharing your journey, enjoyed very much. 🌌

Absolutely elite guys! Looked like a trip of a lifetime, definitely on the bucket list!! Keep up the great work!!

I'm exhausted just watching this. Great vid Um and I can hardly wait for the next one :)

I am a sea kayaker myself. Unfortunately, here, in my home, in Russia, white-water kayaking is much more popular. Rodeo and slalom. Of those who go on long water trips, few have good boats, most go on some kind of slow shit. Those who have it do not know the rowing technique. Those who know it don't have time, because the fucking job and the family take it all away. That's why I train and travel mostly alone. Sometimes someone comes with me, who can handle my mileage. 40-kilometer crossings are a good indicator. In 7 hours, though, it's pretty slow, with your kayaks, but I got a lot of pleasure watching you. Maybe I'll go explore this area too. The approaches to shores are good. Beaches and not such killer waves. I'll do. You're cool, I would go with people like you.. Thanks for the movie! P.S. Respect to the wise grandfather-instructor, it's a pleasure to look at him.

I just started kayaking. Found this and Baltic Sourge and it's exactly what I needed to just get extra exciting about it. Thanks for sharing the trip of yours. Greetings from Germany.

What a great, fun video. Well done!

It is my sincerely held belief, and long time sea kayaking standard, that one must have coffee not only EVERY day, but twice a day to boot. Great adventure, thank you for sharing it!

Well done, you guys. I absolutely loved your story.

Awesome journey. Congratulations! I enjoyed your great camerawork and the travel story. All the best from Japan.

Thank-you for sharing your great adventure!

Very cool adventure and well done. Respect !! Greetings from Holland.

Thanks for sharing 🤙🏽

Got sent here to check out this vid by Ro. Insane trip mate, great vid 🤙

what a fantastic video..well done

Great video!

Brilliant vid. Thoroughly enjoyed yr adventure.

Great story and well done.

Looks incredible. It makes me wanna get a sea kayak myself

Awesome video mate! The wind animation and the pencil powered Kayak was critical to me understanding the task at hand so I'm grateful that shot made the cut!

Great inspiring video. U did well. 👍

Well done, also a fun video. Very brave to do that crossing.👍👍👍

Such a good video guys. And well done by the way, I’m very impressed and you should be proud of paddling across Bass. You can’t argue with the weather and you guys showed great decision making on paddling the conditions you could handle. Congratulations.

LOL, The news broadcast portion killed me. Now let's cross live to our weather correspondent, Alexandra Petto, for a live update. LOLOLOL

Cracking mate! And enough time has definitely passed that I'd do it again!

Amazing adventure and great narrative. And the music. Really inspiring I am really curious how did you pack a drone with you and recharged the batteries during the trip?

Awesome endeavor! What kayak did you guys use?

allie doesn't look to o happy at 29mins!!!

How do you get your water

2 years without kayaking? How long have you kayaked before this trip? It looks like you need some good skills to stay upright in those waves

13 hours in a kayak. How do you go to the washroom?

Had to stop as their middle class crap was making me sick 😫
