Eric Phelps<p>Messed up my schedule, but accomplished part of my goal. Decided to go kayaking, and aimed for the SOFAR (South Fork of the American River). But that meant biking the kayak a fair distance. Well, I made it and launched from a spot being used by geese, but realized I was out of time. Only paddled 1 mile over to another beach where I recovered and biked back home. </p><p>Okay, the plan is to get an earlier start! At least I proved I can go that far without a car. Fun day too!</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/kayaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>kayaking</span></a></p>
ResearchBuzz: Firehose<p>Hackaday: 3D-Printing A Full-Sized Kayak In Under A Day. “With the new setup capable of extruding over 800 grams of plastic per hour, [Ivan] then found a whole bunch of new issues thanks to the amount of heat involved. He steps through the issues one at a time until he has a setup capable of extruding an entire kayak in less than 24 hours.”</p><p><a href="https://rbfirehose.com/2025/08/15/hackaday-3d-printing-a-full-sized-kayak-in-under-a-day/" class="" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://rbfirehose.com/2025/08/15/hackaday-3d-printing-a-full-sized-kayak-in-under-a-day/</a></p>

Dr. Anna Latour<p>Morning kayaking on the Humber River.

Carl Johnson<p>I was about to not bother bringing <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/kayaks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>kayaks</span></a> on our short weekend trip back to the old hometown, but then our grownkid said they wanted to paddle with us . . . and we had the most delightful afternoon on the <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/MohawkRiver" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MohawkRiver</span></a> in a section I didn't used to paddle that much. So much more and better access than there used to be.

Kat O’Brien<p>I saw a bunch of jellyfish while kayaking in Barcelona today! I don’t usually have my phone, but I had bought a waterproof case to try to get pics of the city from the sea today.

Demosthenes 🛶🐈‍🐈☕️<p>I went <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/kayaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>kayaking</span></a> near Croom, Maryland earlier today. The weather has cooled off and the late-evening light was fantastic.</p>
Eric Phelps<p>Another mixed day: 10 miles of kayaking carrying the bike and 8.5 miles of biking towing the kayak.</p><p>It's so freeing to be out kayaking and to be able to consider every spot where a bike trail passes close to the water as a potential recovery spot. So I never bother to plan my day. When the excitement of being on the trail is greater than the excitement of kayaking further, I switch modes.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/kayaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>kayaking</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/biking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>biking</span></a></p>

Federico Hernandez<p>There is one thing though. The Garmin watch recording this - a Fēnix 7 - was probably drunk.

Federico Hernandez<p>No <a href="https://mountains.social/tags/trailrunning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>trailrunning</span></a> nor <a href="https://mountains.social/tags/running" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>running</span></a> today. Went with the swimmerkid <a href="https://mountains.social/tags/kayaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>kayaking</span></a> on the lake I usually run around or pass. Including the obligatory number one Swedish outdoor food “kanel gifflar” (small cinnamon rolls). Perfect for “fika”. 10km at relaxing pace.</p>
Bob Downie<p>Yesterday we had the most amazing kayaking experience I've ever had. Lead by Camy from <a href="https://www.arbroathclifftours.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">arbroathclifftours.com/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a> we paddled north from Arbroath Cliffs to visit a series of sea caves. Despite being a NE loon I had no idea how wonderful they were. Set in Lower ORS) sandstones (U ORS unconformity beautifully exposed!) narrow sea entrances gave access to passages and chambers with fantastic limestone speleothem / flow-stone. Highly, highly recommended! <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Arbroath" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Arbroath</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Scotland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Scotland</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/geology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>geology</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/kayaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>kayaking</span></a></p>
Dr. Ferrous<p>Satellite views of today’s cycling and paddling. Bike ride included the gravel roads of Tom’s Cove Campground. Kayak trip took us to see the retired Coast Guard station, which is normally completely inaccessible except by paddling. Feeling grateful for a cooler day and minimal wind. </p><p><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/vacation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>vacation</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/kayaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>kayaking</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/cycling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>cycling</span></a></p>

Sieva 🚴🚇🏙️🌹<p>I really wish I had a kayak. It's way more enjoyable than our paddleboard.<br>Not sure if it's very compatible with my car-free city life though. Any advice? <a href="https://social.coop/tags/kayaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>kayaking</span></a> </p><p>Perhaps I should start with an e-cargo bike…</p>
Sabine<p>Took advantage of the cooler weather and hauled the kayak to the next lake before the heat returns. 7.5 km of paddling later with a swim afterwards and I'm done for the day.</p><p><a href="https://mas.to/tags/kayaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>kayaking</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/lake" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>lake</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/solitude" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>solitude</span></a></p>
