Bugatti Engine Blueprint

Pinwheel and stickers

On a sunny Saturday, the first after two long months of wind, rain and even snow, we went out on Lake Maggiore to make the final improvements to the kayak and equipment: the new paddles placed under the elastic divisible front axle, securing water bottles in the cockpit with some changes Elementary, placed in different bags watertight lockers to get an idea a maximum capacity not load the new Baidarka (far superior to that of the old Sardinia - Yuppy!), we are dedicated to a well-deserved quiet paddling slowly towards the Borromean Islands ...
By turning colored breast and sponsor stickers all over the hull, my new kayak seems dressed up and makes me happy.
I played a bit with the color combinations and I made some interesting discoveries: the paddle green uniform was the same shade Kokatat , the red goes well with the logo of CS Canoe , the brand includes the AVATAK three colors, and is coupled with a frayed flag Mauro always that mounts to the stern of the little man Kayak Rescue peeps from the bridge and reminds us that no harm will ever be too heavy for the skilled hands of Andrew, the colors of the coats of arms Sullacqua , and CKF CCM create a nice circle that represents the fantasy canoe in the choice of symbol for his club ...
Well, the bathroom is the sun begins to feel its effects: my madness kayakkera is taking off in perfect sync with the approaching departure to Ibiza & Formentera!


In a sunny day, the first Saturday after two long windy, rainy and even snowy months, we went out to test again kayak and gear: place the new spare paddles on the front deck, put the water bottles into the cockpit, stow the dry bags in the hatches to have a rough idea of the loading capacity of my new Baidarka (a lot superior compared with the old Sardinia - YUPPY!), we devoted ourselves to a silent slow deserved paddling around the Borromean Islands on Verbano Lake...
With the coloured pinwheel on the stern and all that sponsor's stickers, my new kayak seems dressed up and makes me really very happy. I played a bit with the colour combinations and I made some interesting discoveries: the green spare paddle has the same color of the Kokatat logo, the red spare paddle goes well with the CS Canoe logo, the  Avatak logo covers the three colors of the Italian flag as well as the little one that Mauro take on his stern, the man of the Kayak Rescue reminds us that no damage will ever be too serious for the experienced Andrew's hands, the colours of the Sullacqua , CKF CCM and create a nice circle That Represents well the kayaker's fantasy to Their choice club's symbol ... Well, the ITS sunbath begins to feel effects: my "kayak madness" is taking off in perfect sync with the approaching departure to Ibiza & Formentera!
