I bought a sit on kayak from a colleague and I want to take it to Loch morlich on Friday. Its all complete apart from the lack of paddle.  I only need something very basic, anyone local got anything or where can I get one ?

Thanks!

Tiso in Perth, go-kayaking in Perth, would expect places in Aviemore as well. Please get a PFD as well, please.

Borrow one from me if you want. I'm in Aviemore. I can provide a PFD too.

Escape Route in Pitlochry?

EDIT: Maybe not, I thought they used to do stuff for various outdoor sports and activities... perhaps not now.

Tiso in Perth is your best bet.

Go Kayaking Scotland (Perth) I think has shut down, think they've only got the one store in Runcorn now

Duh, all the paddles are at the bottom of Shit Creek, where they have flowed downstream.

Ah of course, I'd forgotten about Tisos for water sports, I'll try there.

Many thanks for the offer Scotroutes, if Tisos don't have anything I'll give you a shout.

Thanks

I will personally second the buoyancy aid after getting my hair wet 500 yds from shore, i also now know what a rip tide is too. The guy that took us out the little minch never had one  cool dude i thought bit daft though
