  A Thunder Bay man took back the record for kayaking around Vancouver Island Labour Day weekend.

Joe O'Blenis completed the trip in 16 days, 12 hours and 14 minutes. That broke the old record of 17 days, 4 hours and 49 minutes that was held by American Sean Morley.

O’Blenis completed his 1,140-kilometre voyage in Nanaimo over the recent long weekend.

O'Blenis held the previous record before Morley set the new standard in 2008.
