Max Oudendag took a few minutes last fall to talk about being a Kindred local. 10 years ago Max was pivotal in turning our board-building hobby into a livelihood. He gave us a boost at exactly the right moment by requesting our first ever paid commissioned build! He reinforced our hunch that people would be interested in buying custom or small-batch exceptional rides that reflect the rider - and double as beautiful artwork. For more than a decade Max has been underpinning the foundation of our community. He does this by investing time, energy and heart into sports, events and small business here on Vancouver Island. If there is something cool going on around here, you can bet Max is part of it. He is an expert at bringing people together through projects and to our humbled delight he includes Kindred at every opportunity. This year has seen in-person events cancelled. We’ve all been searching for ways to uplift each other and preserve our sense of interconnection. How many sidewalk conversations about gardening did you have with your neighbours this year? Have you taken up new outdoor sports hobbies? In the face of tough times people are turning to nature and many are satisfying a craving for carefully-crafted goods that facilitate a life well-lived. Choosing outdoor recreation and shopping with small businesses is an empowering way to strengthen our communities. Max made this realization long before the pandemic hit. His actions over the past decade have had a trailblazing and lasting effect that we see very clearly. Three cheers for Max! Give this guy a high five below or an elbow bump next time you see him. If there is a “Max” in your own community, keep your eyes on what they’re up to and show them some love.

🌊⛵️ Chi comanda la barca? Skipper, Capitano, Comandante o Conducente? ⛵️🌊 Navigando nel vasto mare dei termini nautici, ci imbattiamo spesso in un’onda di confusione. Ma non temete, ci sono io a guidarvi tra i flutti! 🚤💨 SKIPPER: È il termine più usato nel mondo della vela da diporto. Non solo tiene il timone, ma è l’anima della barca, colui che conosce ogni segreto del mare e della sua nave. 🧭 CAPITANO: Suona maestoso, vero? È più formale, usato spesso per le navi di grandi dimensioni o in contesti più ufficiali. Ma su una barca a vela, il cap è spesso proprio lo skipper! 👑⚓️ COMANDANTE: Il titolo che evoca rispetto e autorità. Nei contesti professionali e commerciali, il comandante è al vertice. Ma tra le onde, chi detiene la mappa del tesoro è sempre lo skipper. 🗺️🔝 CONDUCENTE: Questo ci fa pensare di più a chi sta al volante su strada, ma in mare, il timone è la sua ruota. Tuttavia, il termine skipper cattura meglio l’essenza della guida in mare aperto. 🚗👉⛵️ Confusi? Non preoccupatevi! L’importante è che il vostro skipper sappia navigare tra onde e vento, portandovi in avventure indimenticabili. 🌟🌅 #SailingLife #SkipperOrCaptain #SeaAdventures #VacanzeInVela #NavigaConNoi 🌊⛵️🏝️ Pronti a issare le vele e a scoprire orizzonti sconosciuti? 🌍💼 Prenotate ora la vostra vacanza a vela con noi!
