Boat Demo & Potluck: Great Outdoor Provision & Carolina Kayak Club
Spring and Sunshine are finally here! Welcome the 2013 paddling season by sampling one of the new boats from local retailer, Great Outdoor Provision. Meet and make new friends, bring a potluck dish to share and bring along a curious friend as a guest. Share your boating passion with others who paddle whitewater, flatwater, and ocean kayaks.
Join us after work for a night of fun, a potluck dinner and boat sampling! So many boats, so little time!

Following is a list of the many boats that are in the GOP fleet and are available to demo. Want to try something new? Call either GOP Raleigh (Robin or Chris at 919-833-1741) or GOP Chapel Hill (Chad or Mike at 919-933-6148) by April 16th to be sure the demo boat you’d like to try is on the trailer. You will be asked to leave your contact information in case of questions. There is room for about 20 boats on the trailer; not every boat will fit and one can’t assume a boat will be there unless it is requested and confirmed in advance.

All participants in any Carolina Canoe Club (CCC) trip do so as common adventurers. The CCC or its individual members may coordinate paddling trips but no one is considered leader of a trip. As common adventurers, all participants take the responsibility for making their own decisions including, but not limited to, whether it is safe for them to participate on any particular water body, what equipment they need and use, the routes they may choose to paddle, whether their skill levels and abilities are adequate for the activity or whether climate and water conditions are appropriate for their participation. Participants are exclusively responsible for their own safety.
Individual coordinators for all CCC activities set requirements per their sole discretion. The CCC does not necessarily endorse or approve requirements set by coordinators.
