Take a step back into the 1800′s and put on a canvass suit and copper hat worn by the divers in the good ol days.
Xperience what it was like to wear +- 60kg of cumbersome diving gear and plunge into the depths of the aquarium.
The diver will wear an Imperial Navy Diving suit which consists of a copper helmet, lead boots, a canvas suit, and other lead weights.
The diver will be able to talk to the supervisor on the surface. This is the closest you’ll get to walking on the moon!
After your dive xperience in history your guide will transport you back to your hotel for the rest of the day and night at your own leisure
Open Water One qualification required.
Overnight at accommodation of choice
Day 3: Sea kayak to see the jackass penguins
You will be collected by your guide and transported to Simonstown – the home of the jackass penguin. The drive here is magnificent and you will be able to take in the beautiful views of the False Bay coastline
Not many cities in the world boast their very own penguin colony.
Cape Town has one and the best ways to xperience it and that is by sea kayak leaving from the Simonstown Waterfront.
Paddle out of the harbour past the Naval Base towards Boulders Beach where you will encounter these playful penguins as they surf the waves or bask in the sunshine on the beach.
During the correct season you will also have a very good chance of seeing the whales.
After your penguin visit you will stop off on a semi-private beach for refreshments, swimming and snorkeling.
Refreshments and snorkeling equipment supplied.
The double kayaks are stable and easy to steer making them perfect for those without paddling xperience.
After your sea kayak and penguin encounter your guide will transport you back to your hotel for the rest of the day and night at your own leisure.

How to bet on NASCAR
In the past decade or so, NASCAR has gone from been just a cult sport to a mainstream one, and is currently in a fierce competition against the NHL for the 4th major sport in America. Such popularity has also transcended into the gambling industry, where wagers on NASCAR continues to increase in numbers on a yearly basis, and one of the main reasons for such acceptance amongst bettors is how simple is to bet on it.

How a schoolboy experiment gave birth to today’s rigid inflatables
Life is full of hard luck stories but some of the worst relate to people who have held a fortune in their hands and let it slip through their fingers. Take the little known story of the Rigid – hulled Inflatable Boat. It seems they have been around for ever and yet the ubiquitous craft was only ” invented ” in the 1960s and the patent was sold for a mere £1.

South Dakota Kayak Challenge – Kayak Races
by admin on Mar.18, 2011, under Articles
The second annual South Dakota Kayak Challenge will take place May 28, 2011, and is scheduled to begin at 7 a.m. The challenge features several race categories that will match racers against Midwestern winds as well as their own mental and physical limitations.
During its inaugural year in 2010, the South Dakota Kayak Challenge boasted 87 racers, ranging from racing veterans to rookies in rental boats.
According to Jarett Bies, co-founder of the event, “The once-wild Missouri River is still mostly undomesticated on this route, and those who ran it in 2010 found it formidable. But first-time racers finished, and we hope more newcomers join the Challenge, along with returning racers from 2010.”
The 2011 Challenge will begin at Riverside Park in Yankton, S.D., and continue through four checkpoints to Bev’s on the River, a hotel, bar, and marina in Sioux City, Iowa. Racers have until 1 p.m. on Sunday, May 29, to complete the race.
Steven Dahlmeier, co-founder of the Challenge, said that while the South Dakota Kayak Challenge may not offer the mileage of other marathon-endurance races in North America, it lives up to its moniker.
“The river is wild in an open and unforgiving way if the winds are strong, and it poses navigation challenges unlike any other stretch of the Missouri,” Dahlmeier said. “Racers from 2010 reported that once they cleared the wide, sand-bar laden stretches, they still faced the tests of recreational boat traffic, waves, fatigue, and of course, more wind.”
Registration is for singles and 0 for tandem teams. Over 100 racers registered or expressed interest in the 2010 event, and Dahlmeier said that number should climb.
“We offer a safe, well-organized event and our volunteers made the first year a near-perfect race. We welcome more paddlers to come and experience the wind, waves, and sheer strength of the Missouri River in South Dakota,” he said.
“Whether racers use this early season event as a tune-up for other races in 2011 or if they just want to complete it, we’ll be ready to register you, answer your questions, and help you have the best possible South Dakota Kayak Challenge.”
For information on this year’s Challenge, including photos from last year, maps of the route, and registration forms, visit the 2011 South Dakota Kayak Challenge website at this link: http://sdkayakchallenge.org. Or call Dahlmeier at 605-864-9011, or Bies at 605-941-4940.
