Bank Holiday Monday 31 May Sea kayak paddle UPDATED

There will be a sea kayak paddle on BH Monday. This will be suitable for a wide range of paddlers. Please note that the wind forecast is currently F2 gusting F4, rising to F3 gusting F4. If this is more than you feel comfortable paddling in please consider whether this is a suitable day for you.

You should be comfortable to spend 2 hours in the sea kayak that you are planning to paddle.

It will be bank holiday Monday and Devon is expecting a large influx of holiday makers. Consequently the trip will be earlier than usual. Meet 9am at Exmouth, towards Orcombe Point.

https://www.exetercanoeclub.org.uk/sea-kayaking/ has details of the equipment to bring.

Emergency Contact Details
Each paddler on a club trip is required to carry a waterproof card with the telephone number of their emergency contact details. This is in case a paddler is injured and the leader needs to contact the paddler’s relative\ friend. A laminated card carried in the buoyancy aid is a suitable method.

We can expect to finish paddling c 2pm, and back at the club by 4pm.

The club is not permitted by its insurance to organise the transport of boats to a club trip. However individual club members may offer to help.

More details nearer the time.

    In my personal capacity I am able to transport two boats as well as my own. Please advise if this would help you. I would come to the club at 7.45am. If not needed I would go straight to Exmouth.

  • Jane could I take a boat space please
    (though if we are tight on boat spaces I can take mine & 1 other kayak - if someone more experienced could check my tie downs are right please!)
  • Thanks Kwinten, will meet you at the club.
  • Not able to make this trip now so will make way for another paddler. Have a good day all.
  • Holly and me will also aim to be at the club for 7:45 to pick up boats.

  • Jane, could I take a boat space please? I'll come to the club for 7:45. Thanks

  • Christina, that's fine. See you there.

  • I will be at Maclains around 0745 with room for my own and two additional kayaks on my roof. No need for Jane to come to Maclains as I know her kayak is already on her car roof!
  • That's great Brian, thank you. See you all at Exmouth.

  • Jane. I will join you to help the launch and part of the morning but I need to get back to the beach for about 11.00. Dad duties.
