PERNILLA OMBERG

Approved by the jury 2016 September 07
 
The first jury meeting was held for Pernilla. The jury members were Sven Berggren, Jim Danielsson and Thorvald Nielsen who also registered the meeting in photos.
Pernilla had a very nice account that the jury liked.
As she only used GPS she had no charts with the route drawn. Instead she had photos from how the GPS had saved her route. Pernilla has in other words used what's possible in the technique and got a clear view of her tour.

Her account for the tour left no questions and was soon scrutinized by the jury that soon could approve her HBB-tour.
To celebrate this year's only female paddler a delicious cake was brought forth.

In connection with her reach of goal sad Pernilla she had have a fantastic tour coming up to all her expectations. The weather had not caused her any problems even if sometimes tough. Her happy smile doesn't surprise us.

This was the seventh time to Peter and he had his account in good arrangement with the route fully readable through the maps.

It was not long before the jury could give their approval and Peter got his miniature kayak from Jim.

Peter liked to give Jim a self-made medal from oak wood as gratitude for all his jury meetings. At one side was a compass rose and the opposite side showed a Tai Chi symbol. The symbol represent the skills needed to fulfil a HBB-paddling.

Jim Danielsson with usual help from Thorvald Nielsen.
After their start April 17 the - the Emils - are now they who have started earliest within HBB. Many have followed them through their blog. In time for their passage of Piteå they could as the first HBB-paddlers use the recently opened canal north of Bondön for leisure vehicles. Just for not be forced to go round the island on their way north.
As the jury was a bit decimated had the camera got to be left aside while maps, charts and log book was scrutinized.

STAFFAN SÖDERSTRÖM

Approved by the jury 2016 November 19
 
In the Jury where found Sven Berggren, Jim Danielsson as well as Thorvald Nielsen besides also photographer during the meeting.

Staffan brought forth his maps and computer while Jim wondered: ”But Staffan, here is no trace drawn.‘ Well. None of present was worse man than that problem could be solved.
It was pure luck the computer was brought along, there could surely all dates be receptively and the meeting could proceed.

Soon enough could the jury agree in their verdict and the registration be done. After this could Staffan get the miniature kayak handed over by Jim.
Staffan did put a new record in number of days - 154. Despite this was a forced on time with work he had to do, Did Staffan never lose his intention to paddle the entire coast.
Time expense has now importance in this no-competition where the follow-through is the goal.

A delicious tart was later served to celebrate his records and that Staffan reached the goal of his intention, in spite the webmaster by a misunderstanding cut him out far before halfway.
By this an extra CONGRATULATION to Staffan.
