[CKF Info] Sunday Paddle

[Mike Brown]

When:  Sunday May 18th at 0700

Where:  La Jolla Shores Boat Launch

What: Several of us are meeting this Sunday for a coastal paddle from the
boat launch to Mission Bay.  We will probably take a few minutes along the
way to practice some rolls, rescue techniques and the like.  This event is
for intermediate paddlers, we may do a surf landing though not likely.

We define intermediate paddlers as those who are comfortable paddling at an
average 3.5 kt in 15 kt winds with 3-5' seas. Participants should have
bracing skills, be able to self-rescue and assist in the rescue of others.
They should be able to launch and/or land in moderate surf.  We will not
paddle with those who do not have and properly wear a PFD and who do not
have and properly affix a splash skirt to their closed deck boats. A whistle
or other audible signal device is required.

Disclaimer: This is not a CKF or any other club sponsored paddle. We will
have experienced paddlers on this trip, but they will not be responsible for
telling you what is or is not safe for you to do. We watch out for one
another and assist one another, but all individuals are responsible for, and
manage their own safety. This responsibility includes assessing your gear,
skill level, and physical conditioning relative to conditions and location,
as well as making decisions about what you will or will not do. Participants
acknowledge that kayaking on the open sea is inherently dangerous and can
lead to physical injury including death as well as property damage.
Participants, on their behalf and on behalf of their heirs and assignees,
agree to hold the announcers and other participants blameless in the event
of such injury, damage or death. Please join us if you want to mildly
stretch your capabilities, but please stay home if you would be wildly
stretching them.

Life is not meant to be a journey to the grave
with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty
and well preserved body, but rather to skid in
broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out,

 or parts replaced and loudly proclaiming –

WOW- WHAT A RIDE!!
