XCTV Presents “Kayak To Hawaii” VIDEO RELEASE seg. 1.
Xcorps TV has previously featured famous Watermen Gerry Lopez and Garrett McNamara on the show now exclusively presents an unsung hero in the adventure world – Ed Gillet!
Few have heard of a long distance sea kayak adventurer based in San Diego named Ed Gillet who in 1987 at 36 years old was the first person known on planet Earth to SOLO paddle a NON-CABIN kayak NO SUPPORT SHIPS or RADIO/GPS (by circumstance) – from California to Hawaii – 2400 miles a record that though challenged still holds now in 2022…Fairly hard core and fully eXtreme!
Ed has been a high school teacher in San Diego.

ED GILLET’s book on his ocean adventures for release on Amazon – link below:
In the summer of 1987 Ed Gillet achieved what no person has accomplished before or since, a solo crossing from California to Hawaii by kayak. Gillet, at the age of 36 an accomplished sailor and paddler, navigated by sextant and always knew his position within a few miles. Still, Gillet underestimated the abuse his body would take from the relentless, pounding, swells of the Pacific, and early into his voyage he was covered with salt water sores and found that he could find no comfortable position for sitting or sleeping. Along the way he endured lack of food, broken rudder, among other life threatening calamities, but at last reached Maui Hawaii on his 63rd day at sea, four days after his food had run out.
Ed ate his toothpaste to get energy for the final desperate middle of the night paddle to shore before being swept past Hawaii and into a vast void in the Pacific!
Author Dave Shively brings Gillet’s remarkable story to life in this gripping narrative, based on exclusive access to Gillet’s logs as well as interviews with the legendary paddler himself.
Xcorps TV has known eXtreme Kayaker Ed Gillet since the mid 80’s in Point Loma San Diego when he was preparing for his over the edge deep ocean adventure to Hawaii! XCTV producer Stu Edmondson was then working at Point Loma Camera and sold Ed the Nikon Action Touch 35mm waterproof film camera that took these pictures documenting the journey – one of the few electronic devices that did not fail during the more than 2 month historic sea voyage!
Ed Gillet Solo Paddles CALIFORNIA to HAWAII with NO CELL GPS and NO SUPPORT SHIPS – FULL SOLO!
This video interview took place in San Diego in 2000 where Ed recalls the challenges of the grueling 63 day 2400 mile sextant guided open sea journey.
See what Ed says kept him going and check out the shots he took along the way on his unsupported solo trip from Monterey Ca to Maui Hawaii.
Great POV video ACTION rolling with the MUSIC here with Ed taking on some fun breaking waves off Ocean Beach San Diego California. The still images for this video was shot with PRE GoPro water cameras attached to his kayak such as the Nikon Action Touch 35mm film camera provided by J.S.Edmondson and unlike Ed’s GPS unit and radio was one of the few electronic devices that did not fail on the journey!
Music from Rive promoted band Snake And The Chain featuring musical artists Snake Allen, Kuryakin and Bif Naked doing their song “Heavy”…nice fit!
