  • Hi. Can someone help me with club gear again please? LV boat, small paddle, med BA, tow line, med helmet, size 5/6 spray deck. Thanks.

    Caroline, if you need to load boats, I can help you on Monday night (8pm onwards would suit me best) rather than risk being late to the quay from work on Tuesday. Please let me know.

  • I've loaded 2 scorpio lv on my car: they can be for Caroline W and Christina. I've also got paddles, decks, helmets and BA.

  • Thanks Jane
    (also thanks for the offer Christina but I don't have anywhere safe to store them overnight as I park on the road at home)
  • Looking forward to seeing you tomorrow night. I assume we meet at the car park near the RNLI.😊
  • For tomorrow (Tuesday 6th July), we'll launch from Starcross. The forecast is quite windy, so we need to find somewhere reasonably sheltered. Let's meet at General's Lane, where there is parking and access to the sea front: https://goo.gl/maps/r6mwThZLcs2Yiid77.

    Please arrive as soon after 6.15pm as you can. If you can be early please do so and get ready so that you can help people who are coming after work. I'll aim to be there from 6pm.

  • See you there, abit ironic I lived in Starcross when we paddled in Exmouth, and now in Exmouth it's starcross....!
  • Thanks Jake, as Jane already has a boat for me I'm good so no need for loading help :)
  • Hi Jake
    Would you be able to bring a boat for Penny? She cannot make it to the club by 5pm to help.
    Scorpio LV is the best bet. Also paddle 210cm, BA, deck.

  • I have spare helmets. no towlines needed this evening.

  • Very sorry all, I had not read through all the previous comments so did not realise that we were meeting at Starcross. I posted my comment yesterday about assuming it was the RNLI car park meaning Orcombe, did not realise there were different venues. Hope you had a good evening.
  • Sorry you missed it yesterday Liz. The venues move to make best use of the tide and weather conditions. See you next week.

  • Hi All. My place is up for grabs this Tuesday as I'm on holiday. Thanks for a great course.

  • I can't come either so another place for someone.

  • Penny, yes you can. Please can you liaise with Kwinten re a boat. I don't have spare boats loaded this week.

  • I'm having to self isolate annoyingly as partner has been in contact with someone who tested positive. So will have to miss this week. Hopefully can get out on some more trips soon!
  • Are any of you interested in weekend day trips?

  • Sorry but I will not be able to make the course tomorrow evening as am now on a 2 day power boat course and unfortunately the timings will not work. Enjoy tomorrow.
  • Yes please Nigel, though I wouldn't be able to make it for a couple of weeks.
  • @Nigel_Sharpe interested but can't do summer Saturdays, and even Sundays can be tricky.

  • Location for Tuesday 13th July: Polly Steps at Teignmouth. To get to Polly Steps you go through Teignmouth Docks and out the back where there is a small boatyard and slipway. TQ14 8ES. Aim to be there as soon after 6.15pm as possible.

  • Access to the van is now looking less certain for tomorrow. I'm still hoping to make it but it could depend on m5 traffic. I will text Jane if it doesn't work out. Alternatively, if there's a spare club boat (Scorpio LV) and a roof rack space I could come and help load and then come by car. I'll probably know about the van by early afternoon.
  • Unfortunately I can't make this last session, a shame but heading to Cornwall. Have a great evening tomorrow.
  • @Kwinten yes please to a boat. If you let me know you got this I'll go straight there. Could still drop by to help if needed. Big thanks.
  • Probably should have said my last chance to check the forum will be 4pm
