edited March 2017 in Club Activity: Club Trips and Tours
There will be a touring trip on Saturday. Tide is low at 11am so it will probably be the river Dart from Kingsbridge or Plymouth Sound. All welcome provided you are comfortable paddling 8 miles. More details to follow. Sea kayaks only.

See more details down the thread.

    Jane, I make low tide at 12 Exmouth, 11.45 Dartmouth....If it is not too early a start, I'm sure Tony would like to come.

    Jane - wind forecast is very light. I wonder whether we could paddle somewhere a bit different? I was thinking out of Challaborough heading west, or perhaps Wonwell Beach heading west (although parking is a bit more restricted there). If so, I am keen. I could also pick up Tony if he is interested.

    I would like to paddle, possibly Ellie too. Nigel's suggestions are tempting... Richard.

    Nigel's idea sounds ideal. I am very busy tomorrow so it would be great if Nigel could organise the trip, and lead it if he would like to.

    I am busy too - it is going to be a 12 hour day at work today!

    Anyway, I suggest that we meet at the Club at 09.00, or at Challaborough 10.15 hrs. Post code is TQ7 4HU. There is good rock hopping around there so bring a helmet.

    I will text Tony later to see if he wants to go and pick him up and drop him off at Okehampton.

    See you tomorrow.

    That would be great if you could Nigel because I've still got bug and am still not well enough to paddle. Very frustrating cos yesterday would have been great for a pootle off Exmouth but I couldn't do it. I'll text Tony to expect text from you.

    I am up for going to either location. I have no problem with the touring trip to Plymouth or Kingsbridge if this is easier for Tony. If we do choose to go rock hopping this is also ok but I will take a plastic boat. I will aim to be at the club at the time suggested. I will not have a car with a roof rack tomorrow because liz needs it for a trip to Bristol. Owen

    I'd like to join this paddle. I'll come to the club for 9.0. Rock-hopping - hmmm - I've just spent 2 days replacing the gel-coat that I've smeared liberally over the rocks and beaches of the South-west. Maybe I'll bring my 'plastic fantastic'. I can carry another boat plus pilot.
