Sunday 26 February Touring trip CANCELLED

edited February 2017 in Club Activity: Club Trips and Tours
There will be a touring trip on Sunday 26 February. It is low tide at lunchtime the trip is likely to be from Kingswear or Plymouth. If interested please reply. All welcome provided you are able to paddle a sea kayak comfortably for 8/10 miles.

Plan: meet at the club at 8.30am or Kingswear Marina at 9.30am. I am hoping there will be enough water for us to launch from the Marina. If not then we will launch from the slipway next to the sailing club. Swell forecast is high and the wind forecast is quite strong so we will probably only paddle a small amount of estuary and then go upriver towards Dittisham. Bring clothes and equipment for rough weather.

    Jane, I know Tony would love to come but I cannot bring him this wkend. Is there any chance of lifts for him n ski from anyone in group? Good news is that he won't need so much transport help for much longer. He has gone through bureaucracy and passed all driving stuff and will have his own car when it arrives in about 4 weeks!

    I would like to come, and I can give Tony a lift from Okehampton and back, and carry ski.

    Nigel thank you! I'll tell Tony: do you have his no to text him as necessary?
  • Nigel_SharpeNigel_Sharpe
    Yes - I have his number

    The weather looks interesting? Gales in the afternoon in Plymouth. I guess that we will need to stay in sheltered water and double check the final forecast.

    I regret that it is necessary to cancel this trip. The wind forecast is too strong: the afternoon has F7, gusting F8. Sorry folks. I'll try again next weekend.
