Sunrise from Journey at French Lake, OK by JK Team | Sep 2, 2012 | JourneyMy favorite time to paddle is early morning in the pre-dawn hours and just after dawn. It is so quiet and peaceful! So many times, we do not stop to enjoy the moment in which we live. Every time I kayak, I am reminded that life is a journey not a destination. My...
“WHERE do you put everything?!” by Samantha Christen | Aug 23, 2012 | Journey, Recreational/TouringThat question, along with, “You go for HOW long?” tend to be the most common question when boating conversation turns to extended forays on the water. The answers to both questions are quite simple, really. To the first: everything fits quite nicely in the hatches and...

SUPing in the Journey! by Samantha Christen | Jul 1, 2012 | Journey, Recreational/Touring It was high time for a Ladies Day on the water, so one of my friends and I decided to make it happen!

Summer Splash by JK Team | Jun 26, 2012 | JourneyThe 35th reason why I love my Journey: It doesn’t mind getting wet. Although flatwater’s optional, one of the best ways to stay conditioned is getting out on the water when the wind is above 25 mph and the waves are worth talking about. You’ll be feeling good after a...
