Great to see Jason at Sea Kayak Shetland being recognised in Paddling Magazine for the great tours - and crofting assistance - he provides!

Jason Fenn runs a kayaking tour company on the Shetland Islands, but on the side, he rescues sheep. Since Fenn became the owner of Sea Kayak Shetland last year, he has rescued nine from the steep, rocky cliffs along the island’s coastline. Some have been relatively easy paddling missions, while others have required extreme efforts, including a 60-meter repel down a cliff.

“Sheep are very good at coming down things because the next bit of green grass further down the cliff always looks good,” Fenn said.

Unfortunately, the creatures are less good at climbing back up. Fenn’s most recent rescue mission derailed an entire kayak tour, but he and his tour group all agreed it was well worth the effort.
