The Club Kayak slide

Below are some photos of the slide being made in the boatshed. After some disappointments in suppliers, Mike Mayhew the Marine Lake Warden and Chair of the Model Boat Club came up with a design. Gavin managed to persuade Travis & Perkins to donate the materials free of charge (BIG THANKYOU TO T&P). Sam, also of the Model Boat Club, who had just finished his GCSEs, helped a huge amount plus help from club members. What was expected to take one day and ended up as over a weeks worth of work eventually emerged for a test this Saturday (9th Sep). See the photos for the result. The slide will be open for use at the MARLENS festival - dare you ride "The Slide"?
