More 3* Sea kayak Training

Pure Liquid Kayaking ran another BCU Three Star Seakayak training course over the weekend of 21/22nd July, based in the Torbay area. We were blessed with glorious sunny weather and light winds for the duration of the two days. This meant that the rescue session at the end of day one, following the skills part of the course, was welcomed with open arms - it was a chance to get wet and cool off a bit. The second day provided perfect conditions for our Brixham to Kingswear trip, that we had planned the previous day, with sunny skies and very light winds. We broke the journey up with a little bit of cave exploration at Berry Head, some rescue and towing practice, plus plenty of navigation exercises and some superb rock hopping along the way to practice those skills. Catching the first push of the incoming tide up the entrance of the River Dart was welcome relief at the end of a top quality trip. 


Thanks to Jon, Paul, Tony and Stuart for being such good students and making the weekend a very enjoyable one.
