Sunday 22nd September - Fast Sea kayak paddle - Saltash to Lopwell return
I am planning to go for a fast paddle to burn off some calories (and possibly a hangover!) on Sunday morning from Saltash slipway (under the Tamar Bridge) heading north and into the the Tavy River up to the limit of the tide at Lopwell dam for an early lunch break. I then plan to paddle back against the wind (F4/5 southerly) to Saltash. Approx 12km return. Fast pace is planned.
HW is 11.30 am (Nepes) so some tidal assistance is expected both ways. I plan to be on the water about 10.30 so arrive at slipway at 10.00am. I remain a bit confused about the status of "Friends Trips" within the Club. For the avoidance of doubt, this is a personal trip I am going to do, and if anyone is interested in joining me, they are welcome - although not a beginner! I do not intend to be "Leading" the trip insofar as taking any responsibility so any personal responsibility will be yours!
As I will be coming from Cornwall, and heading back directly north to Okehampton afterwards, I cannot give any lifts, so if you are interested, you need to sort out your own transport and kit. If you intend to join me, post below. I only intend to check the forum again just as I arrive in Saltash!
