Date: Thu, 10 Jan 2013 22:18:47 +1300
Hi Folks,

Ibm spending some time in Canada and the US later this year, and as plans
are firming up it looks like my wife and I will have some time in San
Francisco before we leave. We will be there at the end of October/beginning of
November.

Ibm keen to get a paddle in while there, and I hope that someone can point
me to the right people to contact. I know that most Paddlewisers have moved to
Facebook, but I havenbt gone down that track so I hope some still use the
archaic (!!!) system of email.

Hope all is well in the land of paddling.

Cheers

JKA

Happy New Year!

Ya, almost everyone is over on Facebook including our illustrious leader.
but Paddlewise is still up and working and I don't think we've all
cancelled our membership. Just stopped posting, more-or-less. I suspect
someone will chime in here.

There is a large group called BASK that you might search for on the 'net.
Their website might give you some ideas. Then there is CSK (California Sea
Kayakers) which is mostly southern California but also has NorCal members.

Good luck. :)

Let me correct part of this.... it's not CSK but CKF (California Kayak
Friends). Search on that instead. My apologies (and thanks to Debra).

Thanks All,
To clarify, Ibll be paddling in the Vancouver Island area with
fellow-Paddlewiser, Gary Jacek, at the start of my trip. The Victoria paddlers
are so organised I was contacted months ago and told EXACTLY when I would be
doing a presentation for them, complete with map to venue!
Ibm hoping to get out in the San Francisco area at the end, and Ibve had
some great suggestions. Thanks for the help, and Ibm still keen to hear
more.
Cheers

I'm impressed that the Vancouver crew were organized enough to schedule
you for a presentation ;-)

I've had great luck getting paddlewise paddling companions when
traveling.  Every time I asked about paddling while traveling I received
info on where to paddle, sometimes with people to paddle with and on one
occasion a loaner boat.

Can't help you on San Francisco, if you happen to swing by
Boston/Portsmouth NH I'll kick in some ideas...
