Trips and Events Wish List 2013

Post by Tharlow »

Last year Kathryne and I did two Inter-Club paddles to Burntwick Island in the Medway Estuary and to The Cuckmere Haven in East Sussex.
Both were well organised and great fun.
In 2013 I would like to do these trips in the Medway Estuary.

Each trip comes with a video.
Anyone else interested?

Another idea that comes up when I talk to Cormac is a trip to Ireland.
I understand the club has done this before and is it that much further (in time) than Scotland?
All views welcome!

Tim
I am also interested in these estuary paddles, plus of course a trip to the submarine/s. I think we should study the tides carefully and try to draw up a list of dates when each of these is possible.
I am happy to lead the trips , and do some of the organising alongside you.

It looks like it's cheaper to load a couple of cars up with bodies, boats and gear and just drive...

Something I would like to try is Sea Kayaking.
Maybe if we can get a group together we could have a try day at Seapoint?

Thanks Sam.

I'm sure that the ice was "character-building"... ;)
