Since the 70’s, a hangover of the golden era of exploration, sea kayakers have paddled from mainland Australia to Tasmania. They do so via several routes, the most popular being via the island chains of the Hogan, Kent and Furneaux Island groups. Crossings are up to 70km, chancing mind and body across Bass Strait, one of the worlds most notorious bodies of water. Adding to the 300+ paddlers who have gone before, this expedition is a tip-of-the-cap to the Aboriginal seafarers who made the journey thousands of years ago during the last ice age. As far as I know, this is the first ever feature film (series) dedicated to a sea kayak crossing of the Strait.
