Kårøyskjeret

Day 11/Tuesday 24th of July. 0 km.
Tuesday (day 11) was spent with rest, repair and resupply at Røst. A rainy and a bit windy day.
The one problem we had was the 1.6 km distance from where the five kayaks lay to the ferry we were planning to take back to Moskenes.
What we discovered was that if you have a problem at Røst, then the solution is our friend Steinar Greger.
Steinar showed up with a truck and transported all the kayaks in one go.
After a lazy day we were ready for the ferry in good time.
Stein’s new friend the Gregersen couple very kindly took all our luggage in their car and drove it onto the ferry. Pick up in Moskenes.
Carrying the half empty kayaks was no problem with ten hands to help.
Actually twelve hands, because off the ferry came our good paddling mate Odd Johan Resser! He and his wife planned an overnight trip to Skomvær on Wednesday.
On the ferry we found out that if you need a late dinner, the late ferry from Røst is not the answer. The “kitche” closes before the ferry leaves. Overpriced sandwiches. Next time we will ask Steinar to cook us a meal :-)
Arriving in Moskenes shortly after midnight, offloading kayaks and luggage, carrying kayaks, bidding farewell to Ann-Cathrin and Sigurd who ran to Å to fetch their car and drive back to Henningsvær.
All done light were out in Jan Jakobsen’s rir by room around 0130.
Luckily the tides are such that we were in no hurry to get to Lofotodden and Moskenes straumen tomorrow (Wednesday)Read more
