| TEL: 0427 225 072 |
To book a paddle please email or telephone Patrick on 0427 225 072 (from overseas dial 61-2-9899-1001 and this diverts to my mobile). Email is best and will be answered promptly.
You can check our current paddle schedule and availability through this page: Availability.
This is just a guide so please contact Patrick to get the latest update. Not all the trips scheduled will run as we need suitable weather for the particular paddles and minimum numbers.
Before booking please be aware of that our trips are not for everyone. The Balmain Paddle covers 12kms and the Billy Blue Paddle covers 5.5 kms so all participants need to currently have a reasonable fitness level and some upper body strength.
What does "a reasonable fitness level" mean? Everyone has their own idea so as a guide you are probably OK if you either:- Play a regular active sport.
- Work out regularly at a gym.
- Can do 20 push ups (male), 10 (female) in 60 seconds
To ensure the kayaks can accomdate you participants must have a Body Mass Index under 28. Calculate your BMI
If you are booking for others or a group please ensure that all participants are suited to this activity.
- Minimum age is 15 years.
- Maximum height is 6'5" (195 cm) - otherwise you won't fit!
- Maximum weight 100 kg.
- All participants must be able to swim.
Sorry - absolutely no exceptions to the above conditions.
Please supply a contact phone number when booking (mobile preferably). I check the weather forecast the night before and if it's unsuitable I will ring you to let you know. Sometimes the weather forecast changes overnight and I might need to contact you on the morning of the paddle.
