Najad – Erik Bergström

Najad – Erik Bergström

"Hej Björn,

Har under våren och sommaren färdigställt en Najad, som fick sin jungfrufärd i slutet på september.

Har ingen tidigare erfarenhet av kajaker alls, men tycker att Najaden är toppen!

Gillar även grönlandspaddeln som jag gjort enligt dina instruktioner. Tränar på paddlingstekniken, tycker att det funkar bra. Kan hålla en marschfart på 8 km/timmen utan att bli trött, helt OK för mig.

Har inte satt något roder på Najaden, dock en skädda efter några turer för kursstabiliteten. Går nu helt suveränt i alla vind- och vågförhållanden som jag varit ute i. Saknar inte något roder.

Bygget gav helt klart mersmak och jag funderar nu på nästa design. Återkommer.

Det är böcker som kostar några kronor, utsorterade från bibliotek, förlag eller distributörer – oftast inbundna böcker i gott skick. Senaste sändningen innehöll bland annat en paddlingbok jag inte hade hört talas om innan: Eric Stillers ”Keep Australia on your left” och som var en positiv överraskning – en av mycket få paddlingsböcker jag läst med litterära kvaliteer.

Boken börjar med att en australiensisk äventyrare vill runda Australien tillsammans med en kompis och beställer en Klepper K2 av författaren i The Klepper Kayak Shop på Manhattan. Eftersom han inte har så mycket kajakvana och kompisen ännu mindre, erbjuder sig Eric att undervisa de båda i havspaddlingens grunder under några turer runt Manhattan. Det går sådär...
