Talking Depth Whisperer
Talking Depth Whisperer is an audio fish finder, which provides information about THE BOTTOM DEPTH with audio output. It will be one of the tech devices I will be using a lot on my kayak. I am planning to use it for mainly two purposes during my training and crossing:1. To stay put at a certain location:
Even if I use a strong anchor wind and current might still move my kayak around. In that case, the depth whisperer will let me know that I move off my spot by telling me about the depth changing.
2. To avoid shallow areas and submerged objects:
Depth whisperer will be especially helpful during my training around San Francisco Bay because it will prevent me from running into submerged objects and breaking the fins of my kayak.

Fishing with me!
Fishing is one of my favorite activity. I do pier fishing around San Francisco Bay. During my training for "Paddling From Europe To Asia" I am hoping to get into kayak fishing as well.I want my website, www.theblindcaptain.com to be a platform where blind and sighted fisherman can connect and go fishing together.
If you are a blind fisherman looking for a sighted fishing buddy or if you are a sighted fishing enthusiast who wants to volunteer please contact me at ahmet@theblindcaptain.com.
