Top 20 challenge in South Africa Your Invited

[andybear]

Doh!

SWMBOAAT says I can't go! Well not unless i take her 84 year old mother with me and leave her on the plane, to go on to Omsk or Stalingrad or some place. This could be the key to getting a mother in law out of the way, and give us a bit of peace. Trouble is, I doubt if they would let her on the plane. Probably be an uphill battle to get me on the plane!

Realistically this is probably a mission for a younger person. Good luck to he who can

cheers all Andybear

Dan ,mate ill shout you $150 From my lab as a sponsor towards your ticket if you go
Come on a few more sponsors

Thanks heaps for the kind offers of monetary support Clive, Aaron and James... Really appreciate it and I might just take you up on it
The other day I sent a PM to Shaun letting him know how much I'd absolutely love to fish in Moz. I've asked him to pencil me in but unless a financial miracle happens between now and Feb 2011, it'll be a really tough call. Hopefully a business can jump on board and say, yeah, OK Spooled1, if ya wanna be a kayak fishing goose in Mozambique and Seth Effrika we'll happily throw you some TAX DEDUCTIBLE corporate dollars.

[sunshiner]

Yes, me too, Dan. I've sent a PM to Shaun, also, asking for precise dates. Have had no response yet. Andybear's comment about age worries me, though

[Davey G]

Moving this to commercial section..

[kraley]

anyone interested in this should PM member Duran.

He did a similar trip.....his stories are freaky good.

Hey Duran - you still out there?

[bazzoo]

Ken , i'm pretty sure Duran can be contacted through Sel , i think he does the software for their forum

[Davey G]

Hey Guys

Sorry Been on a quick trip inland to catch a breath of fresh air before I get cracking on my next Kayak Competition that starts this weekend. I will only know the final dates in about a month or so but provisional dates will be 4th - 11th Feb 2011 (All you will need when you get here will be personal spending money) I will Send the DVD of last year to you guys and you can copy and distribute it to the guys for free. I lost most of my underwater footage so cant sell the DVD . I just need an address of one person and I will send it in about 2 weeks. This will give you a great feel of the comp. If you are feeling adventurous I will be running my Salt Rock Competition the weekend before The Mozambique comp, this competition attracts just under 200 Kayak (189) competitors who take to the ocean!!

Fantastic.
Wasn't there a Rhino from RSA that was pitching a trip to MOZ for a tourney a few years ago? He's in Durban also. We mailed back and forth but I couldn't take the time to go then. It's a HELL of a long way from SoCal. Like 28hrs on a plane to Durban plus the trip up to MOZ. Fantasyland, but I would love more info so I can dream. Dreams do come true.

I think you can fly directly into Durban now as a new airport was built for the Soccer World Cup this cuts flying down to 14 hours - The Drive To Mozambique is 5H30 then 7 days of relaxing and fishing! Last years comp 1 of the guys landed a sailfish, another guy lost one and someone who was staying their but not in the competition got a double up on salies and landed both (they were all successfully released). Fishing was bad!!

[wopfish]

The Mrs has given me a pass - so I'm keen - just need to work out the funds ! I really need to get some of my lures shredded up and some of my drags locked down again

[indiedog]

Shaun, where in Mozambique is the venue? I've looked up a couple of those I've heard about on Google Earth.
