Cancelled Forecast is still for strong winds and a 2m swell. I will add this trip to the calendar on Wednesday 2nd March
Update Friday 28th wind forecast is NW force 6 gusting force 8. I will confirm on Sunday by 18:00 but unless there is a significant change the trip will be cancelled. It will be no fun paddling even on the lake in those conditions,
A paddle anticlockwise around the North end of the island. Starting just North of Jubilee Bridge and finishing at Earnse Bay
The original trip has been deleted by a calendar change. It was fully booked please allow the original attendees chance to sign back on. To the best of my recollection they were, Angela S., Brian C., Pete Ashby, George W., John S. and Sten S. I have opened this up by adding 2 more places

8. Meet to arrange shuttle: As Above
9. Anything else:
The aim is to have a nice leisurely and sociable paddle with a picnic at North End Hawes. Bring a flask and a sandwich along with calm weather and sunshine.
This trip is 10km long with tidal assistance for the first 5km up Walney Channel. Depending on the wind direction there may be some slight over falls in Scarth Channel as we round North End Hawes
This trip is weather dependant so if the forecast is unfavourable the extent of the trip or the venue may change possibly to a lake or the trip may be cancelled. I will post the decision on here on Sunday 30th by 18:00.
Tide height is 8.94m.
HW Barrow is at 10:33 so aim to be on the water by 10:30 latest
