Kayaking
We are thrilled to announce a fantastic new addition to our Sailing Club's offerings: sit-on kayaks! The club has increased the fleet of sit on kayaks from two to five kayaks. Four single and one triple, We are expanding our horizons and providing even more ways for you to enjoy the beautiful waters. A great addition for those light wind days.
Why Sit-On Kayaks? Sit-on kayaks are perfect for both beginners and experienced paddlers. Their open design makes them easy to get on and off, and they offer excellent stability, making them ideal for leisurely paddles or adventurous explorations. Whether you're looking to relax and soak up the sun or challenge yourself with a vigorous workout, these kayaks are the perfect choice.
A Great Asset to Our Club These kayaks are a wonderful addition to our club's fleet, enhancing our ability to offer diverse water activities. The club has purposefully made them very accessible as the club may not be open when they are used, and we encourage all members to take advantage of this exciting new opportunity. An updated Risk Assessment and Guidance on use, access and costs is available through the Members portal If you require any more information please get in touch with either Richard Whiteley, Andy Brown, Tobin Landricombe or Julie Thorpe who can provide guidance and ensure you have a safe and enjoyable experience.
The Guidance document and risk assessment are available through the Members Portal in Key Documents.
Booking . The kayaks can be booked through the website . Priority will be given to club training requirements such as Oppie training. Members must hold watersports membership. Unfortunately kayaks cannot be hired for guests. The kayaks are now available.
Join Us for a Kayaking Adventure! To celebrate the introduction of our sit-on kayaks, we will be hosting a special Kayaking Day in the very near future. This event will include familiarisations and guidance on the local waters and opportunities for all skill levels. It's a great chance to try out the kayaks and meet fellow members who share your passion for the water.
HHSC Kayaking Community We have set up a WhatsApp group for kayakers enabling members to communicate about prospective ad-hoc paddles. The link is:
