Norwegian newbie says hello.
 
Norway calling, viking in a Malibu:)

Hi there!
English is not my native language, so be nice...

About me:
One year from 30..
Skin/scuba-diving
Fishing
No kids, but a dog:)
Love music-Metal/rock, will probably install my IPOD on the kayak...
Working with the department of justice
Loves travelling, been to US, asia, Africa, most of europe.
Former military
Very social, always in a good mood.


Reading this forum and the australian http://www.akff.net/forum/ helped me to choose the kayak that I wanted.
So yesterday I ordered a Malibu X-Factor, this will be my first kayak ever. I will get it next weekend, and I am really looking forward to put it in use here on the norwegian westcoast.
On this map http://www.gulesider.no/kart/;jsessi...6tab%3Daddress ( norwegian yellow pages) you can see where my cabin is, and the coast where i will mainly use the yak.
There are some very good sites for Seatrout and Hallibut in that area.
But i will also try to catch a lot of other species.
I also own a 19" Bella 572c with an outboard that I have been fishing from the last couple of years. Found out that a kayak had to be my next watercraft:).

Anyone been padling in Norway? any good advices for a beginner?
I will also use the yak as a platform for UW-hunting and scubadiving.

It will be delivered without rudder, so I have to see how I will manage.
I have read a couple of posts about rudders, but have not made a choice yet regarding rudder. The norwegian westcoast is windy....so I will probably install...

Hi Malibujohnny and thanks for the norwegian welcome:)

Really looking forward to next weekend when it arrives. Will try it out the same day.

English first
 
I tried....
I wasn't sure how to translate launch... motor boat I guess is the closest I could get...!

What an amazing place to kayak! I guess it would be like our Northern Coast, Washington and Oregon.

Så langt som sardin bokser gå ... Jeg var bare en spøk.

Ha en god tid på X Factor!

(You need a viking hat now!)
