Last season, I seemed to have lost/misplaced  my four piece bracket set that I used to transport extra kayaks. It was in a green plastic bag with two blue Thule Straps are used to tie a kayak, and thin blue bow/stern ties as well.

I have no idea where I left them, but I’m guessing it was at a paddle somewhere. If you found a set of brackets similar to the ones in the link below, I would appreciate if you let me know.

Thank you

Anna

Hey everyone!

My Trak 2.0 kayak just arrived and I’ve put it together for the first
time. Nice!

I’m hoping to join for some kayaking tomorrow. I’m working out at Deep
Cove Kayak as an instructor / guide all summer, and have to be back for
work at 4pm.

I was hoping to get out to join one of the trips tomorrow.

I still don’t have a paddle of my own or marine radio. Does anyone have
a loaner- or is anyone selling theirs? I already put down so much cash
into this kayak that cash is tight!

Anyway, please give me a call if you’re going and you have any ideas of
how I can join. I know this is last minute, but I really didn’t expect
to be ready to go kayaking until FedEx dropped off my Trak a few hours
ago!!!

Awesome!

Look forward to being on the water with you all soon.

Thanks,

Thanks for the offer, but I’m not able to go due to last minute out of town visitors.

Ken if you mean the kayak storage area near Kits I can help you bring you bring your kayak to my house near QE Park tonight and the load tomorrow. It’s complicated because I’m already carpooling with someone from Richmond but it can be done. Call me to discuss 778-995-5071

Hey all,

Thought I’d introduce this topic again if people are starting to think about it more. Anyone looking for or offering rides should post here.

I have my kayak stored at Burrard Marina and would appreciate a ride to either Cates Park or Deep Cove. I’m signed up for the Cates-Twin Island trip but am open to switching.

Thanks!

Thank you everybody for your help! I was able to find someone willing to rent me their boat. It sure is nice to be part of a community where everyone is so helpful to each other.

Hi Theresa,

I would like to join you on Friday.

My friend has just posted her Nimbus Telkwa for sale on Craigslist. It’s a great boat, but it is just too big for her.

SKABC will once again participate in Western Canoe & Kayak’s Paddle Expo to be on Sunday April 28th out on Cultas Lake. Paddle Expo runs from 1000h to 1500h.

I am looking for some talented volunteers that can showcase something that is of interest to Paddlers that can be demonstrated either on land or on water. Volunteer for only a couple of hours or the whole day. Examples of some activities such as; packing a kayak for a multi-day trip, knot tying, trip planning, etc.

If you can volunteer, please contact Calvin Sam outreach@skabc.org 604.561.7629

Thank you

Calvin Sam
