WHEN keen kayakers Jim, Angus, Bill and Peter found themselves storm-bound on an island off the west coast in 1978, they dreamt up a history-making plan. The four men, who had met while working as teachers in Glasgow, made a pact to embark on Scotland’s first major sea kayaking expedition together. This weekend, the Scottish Maritime Museum in irvine is marking the 41st anniversary of their magnificent adventure – which was also the first recorded sea kayak crossing of one of the world’s largest whirlpools - with a special exhibition. Into the Maelstrom: The Scottish Kayak Expedition to North West Norway 1980 charts the story of Jim Breen, Angus Mathieson, Bill Turnbull and Peter Wilson who paddled 394 miles (634 kilometres) as they circumnavigated the two island groups of Lofoten and Vesterålen, 200 miles within the Arctic Circle.
