Filmed in August 2020, my first canoe trip for many years did not go without incident.
My friend Lars, who’s dad had hand built a canoe, had invited me out for a day on the river, something I’d been longing to do for a long time.
Setting out from Huntingdon on the river great Ouse our aim was to paddle east to Overcote, 10 miles away, where we were to be picked up.
Due to a capsizing issue at Hemmingford Grey lock 4 miles into our journey we decided to call our trip short and get picked up at St Ives. My camera had taken on water and I wanted to get it apart and dried as soon as possible.
In total we managed just over 6 miles of our planned journey.
It has taken a long time to retrieve and restore what video files I could from a water corrupted SD card, as a result there are some sound and picture issues.
This has not put me off more canoe trips in the future.
