D of E Sea Kayak Taster Day
Me and Pete were out today with 12 students from king edwards school in Birmingham on a sea kayak taster day. The group had all done a bit in general purpose boats but never paddled sea kayaks before so we took them through some basics before going on a trip up the Menai Straits. Although not the nicest of days the group were really keen and picked up new skills like edging really quickly. A wet finish with some rescues before we all ran in for a brew to warm up. The group will be back next year to start training for their D of E Gold sea kayak expedition.
