Auckland region's varied coastal environment offers great paddling destinations in most weather & tide conditions. The objectives of these paddles are to build knowledge and confidence among our newer club members:

1. Super Sunday paddles are primarily for beginners but all are welcome
2. introduce paddlers to Auckland region paddle destinations
3. introduce paddlers to trip planning and risk managment
4. develop a group of regulars to a point where they can choose and plan a trip suitable for a safe paddle each weekend.

 
Meet 8:00am at North Shore shop upstairs for coffee.  Pick a trip and go!  Generally expect to be off the water by mid afternoon.
 
All welcome, although trip will be chosen to suit people fresh from their introductory skills course who are interested in getting paddle fit and reaching intermediate ability.
 
Bring usual safety kit, clothes, snacks, drink and lunch. 
 
If you wish to hire gear, please arrange before Sunday.
 
Proposed format:

1. meet at shop 8am Sun for Coffee, Tea and muffins
2. check weather conditions, tides & paddlers' capabilities
3. pick trip.  Do trip plan and complete 'Yakity Yak' paperwork.  Clean Kitchen
4. drive to put-in.  Briefing
5. paddle
6. get-out.  De-brief/coffee and head home.
