Hi All,

I’ll be paddling w/ Megan and Jody this Saturday July 30th, launching ~7:15 pm at Point Grey Beach, heading towards Wreck Beach. Return by ~9:30pm. Everyone is welcome to join us.

We’ll be test paddling a few boats so there may be more stop-and-go compared to the typical paddle. It should be an easy paddle.

I have an Epic GPX and a 16X, and am open to anyone wanting to try them out. If you have an interesting boat bring it out for us to try.

Let me know before noon Saturday if you’re interested in joining us.

Great condition, asking $1950, includes the kayak stands

Hi, this is Rick Davies.

We took several videos over the 20 years at the Thetis Island Sea Kayak Symposium which ran from 1985 to 2005.

They are in VHS format, and likely are either in the library or in possession of past presidents. (Harald Riffel? Graeme O’Neill?)

These videos show a wealth of faces and places of SKABC members who attended those events. Does anyone know where they are.

Oh that’s good Gunilla and Ian! I was thinking around 8pm but may be there a little earlier. I am meeting a friend who will be on a paddle board at Kits or Sunset Beach and will finalize plans with her.
I will try to find your number and/or email you personally.

Hi Quirine,

We’re in! Are you leaving from Jericho Sailing Center? If so, what time?

Gunilla & Ian

[Quirine Schuyff]

Ah sorry! I am talking about this Saturday for now. I’m not sure I will do the other days by kayak.

[Vincent Law]

What day(s) were you thinking Quirine?

[Quirine Schuyff]

Is anyone planning to paddle to the fireworks from Jericho? I think I will do it this year. I plan to meet a friend on her paddle board around Kits. I think I will put in around 7-8pm.
Send me an email if you are going.
Please be sure you are fully aware of what it entails as it isn’t for the faint of heart or for those without solid boat handling skills, especially if you plan to be at the front of the fireworks, as I do. Also, make sure you have an effective lighting system for front and back.

Murray says that the net proceeds being donated will total about $3000!

Find your local Search and Rescue team. North Shore?

Donate the flares to them. They do annual training with flares, using their expired ones, so that new members know how to use them safely.  They can always use more.

My experience with such used flares is that they still work fine, for as much as 10 years after expiry.
