COME AND JOIN This is a great opportunity for Chelsea Yacht Club members and friends to come down to the club and join the fun.  Whether you are already an experienced SUP boarder; someone who has never tried it but are interested in having a go and being shown the basics by experienced boarders; or simply want to come and have a look please come along and join the fun.

This is a very casual SUP Vic event specifically targeted for people who just want to have fun and SUP together – it is not an event just for the experienced but more so a great opportunity to come and join a casual and fun opportunity here at the club. The on water activities will be followed by a casual BBQ so even if you don’t want to get your toes wet, come along and join in anyway. SUP Vic will hold two events on the morning – a 4km race/social paddle and an 8km race. There will also be boards available for you to try just for fun and an opportunity to join others in a casual paddle if the structured course event is not for you.

If you don’t have a board or haven’t tried Stand Up Paddling please don’t hesitate to come along anyway. SUP Vic will be bringing some beginner boards for members to try. This will be a great opportunity for newcomers of all ages to give SUP a go, talk to the experienced boarders and get yourself started.

The event will cost $10 for SUP Vic members which includes the on water event, BBQ lunch and of course our access to warm showers and our cozy club facility afterwards. Cost for non SUP Vic members is $12 which also includes a day membership with SUP Vic to ensure you are covered for SUP Vic registration and insurance on the day.

If the weather looks good for the 21^st spread the word and tell your friends. We will be hoping for a light wind calm morning on the day and although this isn’t what we have seen over the past few days, a weekend like last weekend will be perfect for SUP. Please note, that people interested in coming along do not need to be CYC members as they can simply sign up for a $2 day SUP Vic membership on the day.
