Intro

During the summer season we will be meeting at the Scout Hut in Bath Square Old Portsmouth and we will be running for most of the summer Friday nights including the summer holidays right up until middle to end of September.

During the summer our times changes to allow more time on the water. We aim to meet as near to 6pm as possible till around 9pm depending on the daylight hours available. The aim is that we are getting on the water just after 6.30pm. It is important everyone is their before 6.30pm as once we have left there is no coming back until the end of the session.

Clothing

The group provide all relevant safety equipment but please make sure you wear a wetsuit if you have one but if not don’t worry just wear warm cloths even if it’s warm on land it can be cold on the water. The more layers the better. And ideally a wind proof jacket. They should also wear strong trainers or old shoes which you don’t mind getting wet and salty but please NO wellington boots or flip-flops. Also no woollen jumpers or jeans to be warn as they get very heavy when wet.

Please also bring a full change of clothes and a warm jumper for afterward and a towel in a strong bag, no carrier bags please.
