New RS 500 for 2010 (Dec 2009)
We have just added an RS 500 to our advanced sailing fleet.  This is a real cracker of a boat, it’s lightweight hull and powerful sail make for a very exciting sail!

The RS 500 will sit at the very top of our sailing fleet above the Laser Bahia's, 3000's and RS Feva's.  We aim to use this boat for the very top end of the advanced sailing modules and high performance courses.

 


 

New Easky15 Touring kayaks (Dec 2009)
New to our 2010 Kayak fleet are the Easky15 touring kayaks.  The Easky 15 is very similar to a sea kayak allowing you to explore the 10km stretch of Loch Ken in comfort and at speed.

Our Paddle sport courses will give you the chance to use a wide variety of kayaks and canoes, allowing you gain experience to a range of paddling disciplines.

These are also available to hire out as with the rest of our kit.  See our equipment hire page>


 

New Trek 4300disk Mountain Bike fleet (Jan 2010)
2009 saw the centre take a more progressive approach to mountain biking.  With great cycle routes and the 7 Stanes right on our door step we introduced a new fleet of Trek bikes. 

Now a year on, that fleet of bikes have come on gone giving way for our brand new 2010 fleet of Trek 4300 mountain bikes.

 Also new for 2010 is a buggy that attaches to the back of your bike, allowing you to tow young children safely.

These are also available to hire out as with the rest of our kit.  See our equipment hire page>
