We can host corporate team days and social groups (e.g. Women’s Institute, Scouts, Brownies) for group Paddleboard sessions, or a Mixed Watersport activity with Sailing and/or Windsurfing too. Tailored to your organisation’s needs, the sessions are a fun and exhilarating way to try new sports, learn new skills and have fun together as a group.
Anyone launching their own paddleboard, boat or windsurf at Draycote must have their own 3rd party liability insurance. If you are only paddleboarding, then we suggest getting this through the British Stand Up Paddleboard Association who offer membership including insurance for just £25 per year. If you are going to be launching sailing dinghies or windsurf boards as well, either as a club member or a day ticket, a more general insurance is best and insurance companies such as Towergate or GJW are great options.
Buoyancy aids must be worn by anyone on the water at all times.
We strongly advise that you wear a wetsuit as the water remains cool even in summer months (this is compulsory during the winter). Various options are available in terms of lengths and fabric thickness. We will provide wetsuits and buoyancy aids to those hiring our boards or taking part in our lessons.
