EAST BEACH TO BELHAVEN

Today (sunday) i awoke at 07:30 to beautiful sunshine and had planned a trip from the east beach in Dunbar to Belhaven bay on my inflatable red air sup, the board is constructed from the same material that fast inflatable speed boats are constructed from and are used throughout the world for running river rapids they are virtually indestructible, however to inflate the board takes about five minutes with the hand pump, i started paddling at the east beach as mentioned above and continued to the tyne estuary, there was a small surf rolling in at the bay so i caught a few waves, i made a little film of the trip the beginning shows the board being inflated which i decided to speed up a little, unfortunately the camera angle isn't the best as i have no way of fixing the tachyon camera to anything so had to lay it on the board deck which constrict's the view due to the concave shape of the board a problem i don't think you would encounter with a gopro due to all the different mounting accessories such as helmet and chest straps,
Time fly's when your having fun and today i spent five hours paddling around the coast hopefully the weather will hold tomorrow for my last day off.
