This trip will be suitable for those people who have done the Explore and above sea kayak courses this year. Location will be confirmed based on conditions nearer to the time.
Update: The Plan is to paddle from Kingswear. The current forecast is reasonably strong wind from the west, but we should be able to avoid most of it.
Plan is to meet at the Club at 08.30 aiming to leave at 09.00. For those who want to travel direct, meet at the Yacht Club Slipway at 09.45. If the sea is dumping on the slip, we will find somewhere else to launch, but let's meet there anyway.
Parking isn't cheap at Kingswear, so the minimum number of cars would be good so can people who have roofracks be prepared to carry boats? We will load up using minimum cars, and leave all surplus cars at Marsh Barton on the way out and collect on the way back (so no need to pay for parking)
Going:-

Comments
Yes please Nigel!
Sorry busy on the Saturday. Free on the Sunday.
Hi Fiona. We would be back at the Club by 4.30pm at the latest.
I'd like to join please.
Note update above
All. Could people please wear warm clothing, bring a cagoule (and waterproof trousers are a good idea when we are on the beach) , plenty of water to drink on the way, some food for lunch and a warm drink is a good idea. We should also be wearing helmets. I will see people at the Club tomorrow.
I will meet you all at the boat shed. I will have room in and on my car for 2 kayaks and their paddlers. Looking forward to blowing away the cobwebs, not too literally, I hope!
Kasia - I have a spare one I will put in for you - it will be big but windproof!
Thanks - challenging conditions and you all handled it well - a pleasure to paddle with you
A great day:) Thank you
