River Beaulieu from lepe Country park and return. great day out. let me know if you want to go. Rick Covell
Launching at Lower Swanwick, or if you want something a little longer Warsash, going up to Botley across to the Horse and Jockey and back.
Respond on spond if you want to go.
Sea trip out to see Old Harrys Rock between Studland and Swanage.
Need to be at Explore or working towards Explore level and be competent at deep water rescue and use of spray deck
Seeing the city of London from a different perspective i.e. from a Kayak. This is a round trip of 17 miles although there will be a lot of tidal assistance. Paddlers must be experienced in moving tidal water and waves, spray deck competent, and deep water rescue competent. Paddlers should ideally have been on some club sea trips within the last year and be at or near Explore Level. Paddlers must be able to dress appropriately to the conditions. This is initially a peer paddle (unless I get a coach to come) therefore at your own risk. Unsure then ask me Rick.Covell@ntlworld.com
Experience the wonderful River Hamble from Lower Swanwick to Botley Mill, the Horse and Jockey at Currbridge and all being well a magic ride back on the tide. A good first estuary trip and introduction to the sea with a little moving water. Paddlers should be Spray deck and deep water rescue competent working towards Explore Standard
