Hi Helen, I am interested. Can I bring two kayaks? Happy to pay twice, but only take one space.

Stephanie RatzlaffThank you Helen. I am interested. I have difficulty getting my paddle blade under my deck lines for rescues with the current set-up and would appreciate assistance with modifications if this could be included. Thanks, Stephanie

Quirine SchuyffHi Jim.
Thank you for the offer. We are looking for a more traditional holiday style for this particular event.
We appreciate your willingness though!
See you soon!
QuirineQuirine SchuyffInterested.
Josephine KovacsThanks Helen, I am interested? Josephine
Johan WorstDitto comments from Thom and Nick.
I have a pair of these and used them for loading onto the top of the car while keeping the stern off the ground. It’s difficult to keep them in place when moving the boat.
Helen BeerPlease let me know your interest in participating in a hands on deck line workshop in January. There will be a fee for supplies and room rental at Sunrise Park. Bring your kayak. The workshop will be between 2-3 hours on a Sunday afternoon. Just gauging interest before we committ to renting the space. Helen B. Safety Officer hbeer25@gmail.com

Quirine SchuyffJust a couple more days until our holiday party!! If you plan to come, please be sure to sign up soon on the calendar/events page. It would be wonderful to have one more turkey being cooked and brought in. No pressure. We will still have a bountiful and delicious feast without it!
We are looking forward to seeing everyone!Former MemberYou will also need a leash line tied to the wheels and running forward to an anchor point like around the cockpit coaming
Nick HeathHere’s an opportunity to provide feedback/ comment to qathet Regional District (Powell R) about their 10 year plan for parks and trails.
(They have some parks that are important for paddlers and one question asks if you would like more parks!) You don’t need to live in Powell R to fill out the survey.

Yekaterina YushmanovaThanks, Nick! I will try them out for unloading. The v on them is very narrow so they must be meant for the ends of the boat.
Nick HeathThese are ok for an unloaded kayak or canoe on hard surfaces, but not loaded boats. The wheels go under one end, so your arms carry most of the hull weight, unlike the bigger wheel sets that are near the balance point and so take most of the load.
For a day trip, they might be easier to use than a shoulder carry.
They could also be strapped on for unloading a boat from a vehicle where one end could otherwise drag on the roadway.
