Estuary Trip River Dart - Sunday 4th November 12.00 noon on the water.
There is still no water in the rivers for white water paddling and so I want to see if there is any appetite for an arm stretch on Sunday afternoon. Big swells and up to 20 mph winds out at sea so a coastal trip is not realistic at this time of year.
High tide on the Dart is 3.00pm and the wind will be from the South. If we meet at 11.00am at Kingswear to drop the boats. Shuttle all of the cars back up to Totness and subject to numbers catch a taxi back to Kingswear or bring one car back. On the water for 12.00 we can follow the tide and wind up to Totness. (Most of the upper Dart is sheltered from the wind) This is about a 3 hour paddle with a quick stop for a flask of tea half way up. It will not be cold but we might have some light rain which makes the upper Dart very scenic. Subject to one more experienced paddlers signing up anyone who has done the 2* training will be fine.
It is a very pretty trip
Off the water at 3.00pm in Totness.
Sorry for the late notice but I have been watching the weather all week trying to work out what is feasible. I will convert this to a club trip is a leader signs up.
Timings 10.00am at Club or 11.00am at Kingswear.

Yes please
Tony. Yes if we leave the boats on the slip through the arch just to the left of the lower ferry we can then take the cars up to Totnes.
