Get out and Paddle...
Sea kayak racing is becoming ever more popular as paddlers look to push themselves further and harder whilst they pit their wits against the opposition and the environment.
There are many events scattered around the UK coastline, some are easy going events and some are hardcore challenges - take your pick.
The variety of boats and paddlers that take part is always impressive, from all out racers to open canadians with the kids and the dog thrown in. These events are as serious or as fun as you make them - but always friendly.
