Had our Christmas holidays on the East Coast. We took a pretty wild boat cruise to a remote island off the tip of the Freycinet peninsula to see a seal colony.

It was wet, bumpy, windy and salty but my hemp kilt by R Kilts really held out well. A year ago I would never have attempted such a trip kilted but the weight of the hemp RKilt made me pretty confident about doing it.

Naturally, I got a couple of compliments from other passengers.
