Description

This Unofficial Coracle Society Group has been set up to allow anyone with a love of coracles to discuss coracles and skin boats. Those yet to dip a paddle in the water are especially welcome to join, it is not necessary to be a member of the Society.

It is especially useful for meeting others in your area and arranging group paddles.

Please note that inclusion of any entry on this site does not necessarily imply the approval of the The Coracle Society.

New members are moderated so initially your messages may take a day or two to appear, this is to keep spam and obscenity out.

The Coracle Society has a new website which can be found at

http://www.coraclesociety.org.uk/

Re: Weather
I'll say you were prepared. I think if I'd brought the snack bag along as planned we could have stayed out a couple of days. It was 65deg F today which sounds
