Karen Wrenn Channel Island Crossing Video

One year ago, our friend Karen Wrenn became the first person to stand up paddle across the entire California Channel Island chain. We've met Karen and her husband John a few times at a couple of the Coastal Urge races and also at the Tahoe Nalu race. Here is a pic of Karen with our daughter after one of those races (this pic appeared in the StandUp Journal Fall 2011 issue)...



...and here is an awesome video documentary of that crossing...



Anyone remember Chris Wyman, who was a pro west coast wave sailor back in the 90s? He was Karen's Crossing boat captain and works for Kaenon Sunglasses.

You can check out her blog posts about it right here.
