Last Thursday evening bought great excitement for the regular paddlers of Southbourne Canoe Club when Simon of Southcoast Canoes turned up with a van full of great new kit.   His van was stuffed to overflowing with kayaks , paddles and other accessories including

6 Club spec Dagger GT’s in GTS, GT and GTX sizes

6 Action spec Dagger GT’s in the same range of sizes as above

6 Palm Drift Paddles (205mm)

6 Palm colt paddles 195mm Junior/smaller paddlers)

12 assorted spray decks

The GT range of kayaks have been around for a while and are well known and respected as an excellent boat,  providing good response whilst being stable and predictable,  the Action spec is the boat of choice for those wanting to take their first paddle on moving water, with fully adjustable outfitting and a full plate footrest meaning you can get the ‘connection’ with the boat that is required when on white water

Further details on the Dagger GT range can be found here DAGGER GT

Although the new equipment is all safely locked away, it will be made available to all members on the usual Thursday evening sessions and any club trips.
