BREAKING NEWS: This year's soiree has been scrapped due to the great British summer. Having taken advice from the met office, and with close scrutiny of wind guru we have decided that for the first time in six years, we should cancel the soiree. There is a severe weather warning for Saturday night and rain throughout Sunday. If it is possible to arrange another weekend around the busy scouting 100th anniversary bookings, we will. Other possibilities can be considered. Sorry!
Launching in July, 'Ocean Paddler - The sea kayaking magazine' is a new
and exciting concept in UK paddlepsort publications; aimed solely at the
sea and touring kayak paddler and published 12 times a year by 'Masik
Publishing,' Ocean Paddler's 84 pages will include trip and expedition
reports, technique articles, reviews, guides, interviews and much, much
more. All our articles will inform, enthuse and excite today's sea
paddler - we guarantee it!
Sea kayaking covers many different elements; from day trips to overnight
sojourns; from weekend to week-long paddles; from full-blown expeditions
to short play sessions in surf or tidal races and all in conditions,
ranging from mild to wild and so will we... Beginners, intermediates,
and experts alike will revel in the coverage our publication will bring
to this amazing sport.
The UK is rightly viewed as a leader in sea kayak manufacturing and
design; our coaches are, undoubtedly, amongst the best, if not the best
in the World, and we think it's about time that UK sea kayaking had the
dedicated, monthly magazine it so richly deserves.
Printed on high quality paper, all from sustainable sources, Ocean
Paddler will be a huge step forward from other UK based kayaking
magazines; there are, of course, other UK paddling magazines covering
sea kayaking, but only one monthly title that is entirely dedicated to
the needs of the sea kayaker - Ocean Paddler!
Through our determination to include only the very best content we have
secured the exclusive services of the World's best paddlesport
wordsmiths and photographers, all of whom are as excited about Ocean
Paddler as we are!
