Thames Trip Putney - Tower Bridge
2024-03-03
Seeing the city of London from a different perspective, like 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 contact Rick Covell.
