My interest in abandoned artillery started years ago when we visited old batteries and coastal military infrastructures of the second world war in Newfoundland, some still had their guns mounted. It left a strong impression so i tried to find more and i eventually learned about only one other potentially interesting site.

There wasn't much information online, the aerial images showed nothing clear because of the heavy forest cover and remote location. I was curious, it was either gone or just still there, somewhat hidden and still barely known... Seemed really interesting but getting there involved boats and ideally some knowledge of the open sea around there. It didn't seemed wise to rush anything

After a couple years of stagnation, the idea was reactivated when i became friend with Sor a sailor that happened to live not too far from there, he was down to go, he knew the waters and had access to boats! The flow was good and we decided to go there and back on a hot day 2 summers ago.

Turns out we had less kayaks than we thought and he decided to go on a big surf board...he reassured us that he had done longer distances than that on boards before and that the waves were supposed to stay chill for the whole day so it would be fine. I wasn't convinced but he knew what he was doing so we went for it.

8- Its a really old piece of artillery, invented before the 1900'S, there is less than 10 surviving example of that model in the world
