There's lots happening behind the scenes with regards to kayaks and paddlesports.
Not sure how much I can say about any of it yet, but part of the strategy is to visit with retailers and other stakeholders to train their staff in kayak regulations and other safety ideas, and to supply other information to hand out such as these stickers.

I might be able to grab a heap of these stickers on Tuesday and then work out a way to distribute them if anyone is interested.
Great idea mate...I'd be interested in a couple ...oh and good luck with your first shift :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I grabbed a heap of these stickers yesterday as well as some "I've Gone Boating" fridge magnet whiteboards.
I've messaged Jim and we are arranging to get them into his possession. He will then organise distribution, probably by interested members sending a self addressed stamped envelope.

Wow. The magnet is a great idea. Someone was switched on there.
Live long, fish hard and hopefully catch something.

It's a great idea :up:

I have an 'in case of emergency' card with my contact details and emergency contacts (wife) details in a snap lock bag attachment to my yak - and one in my pfd pocket.
