I've been a bit quiet lately. One of the reasons for this has been the huge amount of pondering and then hard work in setting up Masik Publishing, which from the middle of July this year will launch a new sea kayaking magazine - "Ocean Paddler".
At last weekend's Scottish Sea Kayak Symposium we launched it on an unsuspecting public, and the response has been incredible. Lots of subscriptions were taken there and then, and more are coming through the website on a regular basis. A great amount of support from the industry players and top coaches, and a wealth of possible contributors and articles.
I'd like to say a big thank you to everyone I spoke to at the symposium about the magazine. It's been a huge undertaking, and as with any new business venture it's stressful and involves an element of risk, so it was finally good to be able to speak to a wide audience about it.
I won't give you the sales patter - that's on www.oceanpaddlermagazine.com, but I would like to say that I want the magazine to inspire paddlers to get out and try new things, paddle somewhere new, and get out more.
