Anyone have any 3 star touring assessments running who wouldn't mind me coming along for an observation? It would need to be at the weekend as I can't do week days but I am willing to travel so broadly speaking anywhere in the UK is fine.

For what its worth, mine has come back with a new battery expiry date of 2024.

Another shout for Spares Marine. They were recommended by a guy at McMurdo. Just had my battery replaced about two weeks ago. Posted the PLB to them on Saturday morning. It was back with me by Wednesday evening. Can’t fault them and wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.

Thanks. I know about all of these and several others. None are offering assessments on said dates, at least not according to whats published on their websites.

I'm looking for a four star sea assessment over the summer. Does anyone have / know of any assessments running within any of the following date windows: 9th - 15th July 28th - 31st July 12th - 31st August but not 27th. If anyone can offer an assessment on in these dates I'd be interested to hear. I ...

Just in case you haven't clocked it, Chasing Niagara is now available here https://geo.itunes.apple.com/gb/movie/c ... 79918?mt=6 on iTunes.

I've sent you two messages. I'm not sure whether you are getting them as they are just sitting in the PM outbox and not showing in my sent messages folder. If they haven't got as far as you then I'm interested in the Raptor. I'm in Oswestry so quite close. If there is nothing in your messages from m...

I'm interested. Will PM you.

Is there anyone out there would is looking to complete their UKCC L3 white water kayak discipline specific training? I need to complete mine and am looking for a course to go on. I am a teacher so for me it needs to be either at a weekend or during the school holidays. BC require a minimum of 2 peop...

Sent you a PM.

Where are you based?

Riverapp will let you do this.

I will be going down to Limoges in France during the summer. Does anyone know of any white water in the area which would be good to do or any guidebooks or sites which cover the area? I can see plenty of blue lines on the map but just wondered whether anyone has any knowledge of the area from a padd...

I want to do the Coaching the Mind CPD modules. Does anyone have any running I could attend over the next month or two? All the ones listed on the BC website are on dates I can't make. I just wondered whether anyone knows of any running or whether any clubs are buying in a provider and have a space ...

You could just use blogger. Its Google and free. Good enough for what most people want.

My advice would be to try and borrow a set of splits which allow you to vary the angle. Try paddling with them set to different feathers and see what you prefer.

Has this boat now sold? Might be interested if not.

Is this Raptor still for sale?

Have a look at Direct Line. Bought my winter ski insurance from them. I'm sure, from memory that their insurance covers everything up to G5. Might be worth a look.

Sent you an email.

Seem to recall that the yellow Palm tape is a 5m tape but the red one is only 4m. Might or might not be a factor which influence purchase. I have the yellow tape. I think it has a breaking strain of about 3MT. On this basis, even if a knot reduced the strength by a third that would still leave a bre...

If anyone finds an orange and black Everest floating down the Dee then I'd be grateful if you could give me a shout. River was fantastic until I missed my roll. Spoke to someone in the town who said he had seen it floating down under the bridge in Llangollen about 10am. Has all my leading gear in it...

Also on my to do list as I live locally. I haven't actually run it yet but just from having a quick look as I drive over it i think it probably needs to be at least on a 0.4 on the envionment gauge on the link mentioned. I have it set up with an alert on the River App app on my phone. Evan at 0.4 it...

The other side of the mill, which isn't /wasn't used for paddling has just been sold. The current site and the rafting operation which operates from it are not for sale so far as I am aware. As others have said, Mike has talked about this for a long time. Getting permission to abstract water is one ...

Likewise, I'd love to hear more. Maybe common sense has finally prevailed. Can you give any more info. For example, how reliable do you think your source is?

Any idea when in July.. Might be interested but am limited to school holidays.

Certainly be something I'd go to if there was one.

Ok thanks. I have an Everest to get rid of. I think I probably need the 8.1.

Assume by large you mean the 8.6 Mamba rather than the Mamba 8.1 ?
