    Force 4 to 5 wind forecast which unfortunately means this trip is cancelled . This trip is weather dependant please check here for an update, which will be posted by 18:00 on Thursday 28th September Wind forecast: Needs to be light winds (assume sea kayaks can cope with windier conditions) Arnside Borewave: 1.

Anything else: It’s tricky for first timers as a very powerful wave over shallow water, therefore it’s easy to get tripped up Tide height is 9.47 (Ramsden Dock )so there should be a good bore wave?

    Humm… Forecast windy again tomorrow, I’m thinking if in a river kayak the paddle back will be arduous and not too enjoyable. sea kayakers will fair better, I guess. is a sea kayaker willing to take over the leadership of the trip?
