    Andy, unfortunately I will not be able to make that date as away on holiday in a slightly warmer puddle. Looking at work rota, won’t be able to do any more 3* sessions this season either. Rubbish! 🙁

    I am running the 3 star sea kayak assessment on Saturday 26 September. The exact location and time of this assessment is weather dependant but is most likely to be from Mount Batten. Judging from past experience the assessment will finish at approx 15:00hrs.

    Places are limited to 6 and booking is essential. To book your place please either phone 01752 344425 or e-mail cliveandjoy01@gmail.com

    Craft. The 3 star sea kayak syllabus has this to say about the craft to be used on the assessment. A sea kayak suitable for journeying on the sea and one that allows the candidate to safely and effectively complete the requirements of this syllabus. Historically most club members have taken this assessment in general purpose kayaks. I see no reason break with our fine tradition.

    It is worth looking at the assessors notes that can be found at http://www.canoe-england.org.uk/media/pdf/BCU%203%20Star%20Sea%20Assessment%20Notes%20V3-0%20Oct13.pdf Pay particular attention to section D, the theory section.

    Any questions please don’t be afraid to ask.
