Sunday 7 June sea kayak trip on the sea CANCELLED

edited June 3 in Club Activity: Club Trips and Tours

Sorry this trip is cancelled, as the weather forecast is too strong. See other post for trip on Sunday 14 June.

Following on the from the Set 1 sea kayak courses, there will be a trip on the sea. The aim is for new club sea kayakers, including people who have been on the beginners courses, to have an opportunity to paddle on the sea. The location will be decided nearer the time once the weather forecast is available.

Update on Tues 2 June: weather forecast is for a blustery weekend, with wind from the West. My initial thoughts are that we can go to Kingswear and paddle on the Dart estuary, the Dart is reasonably sheltered from Westerly winds.

In terms of experienced paddlers should be able to paddle to Double Locks and back comfortably, and know which sea kayak they like to paddle. It will also be necessary to use a spraydeck, and have previously practised a capsize from a SK with a spraydeck, and climbed back in the boat.

More experienced paddlers are welcome to support this trip, particularly if they are able to help with transport.

    Hi Jane thanks for organising this, I would love to come along. I have no car so will either need a lift (I live close to the Club, off Topsham Rd) or a location reasonably accessible from train/bus/bike. I've put a reminder in the calendar!
