Sat 31 July Sea kayak paddle suitable for new sea kayakers
The club welcomes the many sea kayakers who have joined this club this season. We would like to enable them to start / restart paddling on the sea.
There will be a trip on Sat 31 July suitable for paddlers' first trip on the sea. The plan is to paddle from Meadfoot Beach in Torquay, TQ1 2JL. We launch from near the bandstand, down a flight of steps.
Generally club trips are a whole day, but we can arrange this day to finish at lunch time, as well as later if this would suit some paddlers.
If you cannot make Saturday, but can make Sunday please reply to the thread and let us know. We may be able to run a trip on the Sunday as well.
This trip is open to all sea kayakers, new people and experienced paddlers. The club cannot organise the transport, however individual paddlers may offer to take boats for people without transport.
There is information on what to bring here:

EDIT: this trip will run on Saturday only.
Meet 8am at Maclaines to load boats, or 9am at Meadfoot Beach.

C: club boat. There are 16 club boats
I expect that some of the paddlers may not have used spraydecks before. Please can the drivers taking the boats make sure that spraydecks are taken for everyone, along with the paddles and helmets.

I can take 2 kayaks in addition to my own. I will be going to the club at 8am on Saturday.
I can make either day and would like to join you. Prefer Saturday. Will meet you there.
Rupert and Julia can transport their kayaks.
I can be there on the Saturday but not Sunday. Have space on my car for 1 or 2 additional kayaks and will be at Maclains for 0800.
can I join you please.
Yes please, I would like to join. Will need to use a club boat.
I'm keen to join! I would need to borrow a club boat, if that would be ok?
Thanks
I would like to join, and can carry a couple of extra kayaks
It's an armada! Let's conquer somewhere.

Hi Chloe
The club has plenty of spraydecks, these will be fine.
Hi Ceri
No need to drop out. We are accustomed to helping people to get on the water. This will be the best opportunity to get on the sea this summer. If you'd like to come just come to the club tomorrow morning at 8am.
