The Queensland Government has put out a code of conduct for paddling on the Brisbane River. All members are asked to familiarise themselves with it.

Please take particular note of lighting requirements if you are caught out at night, and also the conduct in regard to ferries arriving or leaving terminals.

The code is found here

We've noticed sea kayaks are being left with wet stinky compartments or with hatch seals not in place. Information on how to leave sea kayaks, so that the hatches keep dry and safe for the next user, is now on the website.

Look here for the page.

The software the club uses for its website depends heavily on stylesheets. MS Internet Explorer is only poorly compliant with them. Consequently IE displays the pages badly.

In IE 7 the page content appears down the bottom of the page (so scroll down).

In IE 8 it was improved, but some of the main page contents are barely legible (increase the font size to help).

Best thing to do is to simply use (any) other web browser (volunteers to fix it are welcome!)...

Sorry about that....

Marj Morgan (last year's club treasurer) has started a website aimed at helping women in outdoor education and recreation activities. Check it out at http://www.girlsoutdoors.org

Remember there are many internet resources available to members.

Links are available to a site that predicts approximate tide times at locations all around Australia. Useful for many areas around Brisbane (including the river).

A free online resource demonstrating a range of paddling and rescue techniques. Use it to improve your technique and abilities. Great step by step animations and instructions.

The website has undergone some major changes. Previous broken functions are now fixed.Check out the Tide predictions page. Please email the net admin if you find links that no longer work.

The software that runs the site is undergoing a major upgrade. A lot of under the hood things remain to be completed. Don't expect to see many changes though. At least the site will work properly after this upgrade! After it is working, new things may be added....

We're in the process of working out our software upgrade path.
