Wrapping Things Up

 

Thanks to everyone who participated in this year’s paddling trips. It was great to be able to get out on the water, try some new places to paddle and to meet lots of great people. Hopefully we can start paddling earlier in 2021 and the weather and seas cooperate for great times on the water.

Putting your kayak away for the winter

The following websites have lots of great tips on storing your kayak for the winter. The first two cover lots of great ideas and the 3rd one is a forum on Paddling Magazine where paddlers share their ideas on storing their kayaks.

Social Distancing for Kayakers and Paddlers

Paddling Magazine recently posted an article which has lots of interesting items/news about Podcasts, Crosswords, Books, Movies, Yoga, the latest paddling gear for kayakers and much more:

Ordering Kayaking Equipment

If you are thinking of ordering new kayaking gear, it is wise to put your order in early. Kayak shops are experiencing a backlog in their equipment orders. This is mainly due to two factors:

Covid has slowed down the ability of the manufacturers to complete orders and there has been a huge increase in people wanting to buy new equipment  You may have to wait quite awhile before your order arrives at the shop.

Take care

Stay Safe and Happy Paddling
