When "sea kayaking," if I am paddling alone at a comfortable speed I find that I generally do about 4 knots per hour. I can pretty much sustain this speed all day long. I am a fairly competent paddler who prefers relatively fast boats. So I would guess that you should be able to do 3 to 3.5, if not 4 knots per hour, multiplied by however long you feel you can paddle in a day. Let's see... That's 4 knots at the end of the first hour, 8 knots at the end of the second hour. . . and 32 knots at the end of an 8-hour day. That's one mighty fast kayak! OTOH, you might have meant "4 knots" or "4 nautical miles per hour"... ;-) |
