  1. we went to kayak demo dayon Saturday, i turned up in my Dorado, whilst helen took her Scupper pro, we had a great afternoon, having a splash around in kayaks we never tried before, (didnt get much time at Exmouth)

    it was so good to see all the lads and lasses that use a few of the sites we belong to.

    i must confess in getting payment from Andrew in the form of a cup of Coffee..... thats it ...im bought :D oh sh*t.... i forgot i have a kaskazi ....... Simon !!!! where is my Coffee ?

     

    in all honesty, when i put the Exmouth meet together, Andrew was the 1st to offer his support and !!!!!!!!!! he got other manufactures interested too, and as everyone knows it rollercoastered from there.

     

    I or helen did not recieve any gifts or payment of any discription relating to Exmouth or anything else to do with our sport, but i can tell you , all the reports written by the lads are honest reports , after getting to know them all , they are not affraid to say what they think, and it would be stupid for a manufacturer to ask otherwise,

     

    maybe .. ;) if some of the other manufactures put themselves out more to learn the sport, then they might, just might, get the same publicity as OK

     

    well done lads for the weekend, it was great fun and thanks Richi for the fishing trip, always good to see you all,

     

    cheers

    john & Helen

    Hi capt,

    i got to be honest, they have actuly been quite good, yes you do need every type of public liability insurance, but they did let me have the field,

    i hope its going to be a great weekend there seems to be a lot of interest and the papers have been good as have the local BBC radio,

     

    anyway onwards and upwards,
