What have we been doing!

Well, all of you how read this blog often will notice that we haven’t written a blog for some time, basically we’ve been very very busy. Despite the rather dodgy economic times we are in we have just had one of our best ever summers, lots of customer coming through the door, lots of kit and boats going out , lots of boats and bits that need to be repaired and sorted out, so far are favorite has been replacing the end caps of P&H Revenges!

(Mr. Tickle at work)
Not an easy job unless you are Mr. Tickle and have arms 6ft long. On the boating basically for me it’s been a drought! 164 since I last paddled a river (I’m not including the Thames or HPP in this!!!!) although we have still all been out 5-6 times a week at either Chertsey or at Slaloms around the country. Talking of slaloms this week end gone we were supposed to have our first Division 2 slalom at the drainage ditch at Cardington, However due to possibly the most unhelpful and grumpy people I’ve ever met at a slalom, whom would not let us enter, we had an hour an a half drive there then came straight back! GREAT………



(No not the queue for Hurley! just the practice session at the ditch)

I will never ever ever ever go to Cardington again! EVER. Any how on a happier note we now also have some SUP from Circle One, I’ve been a little wary of these in the past,

but I can happily say that there amazing so easy and fun to jump on and go for a great little cruse, so long as you don’t fall in you don’t even have to bother to get changed! Proper summer sport. We’ve also been working on some top secret testing for Pyranha, well been working on for some time actually but now after over a year of prototyping, Re: shaping prototyping some more I don’t think it will be long before you see the new Pyranha Play boat.


(Seth throwing down @ Chertsey)

Based very loosely on the Rev it has a completely new hull and rails, totally new deck and is looking very Sweet, and very fast. I’m pretty sure, and I hope Pyranha don’t mind me saying this available in plastic and Full Carbon (boat weight around 7 / 8 Kg haven’t broken one yet!) all things going well it will have it’s first public showing at this weekend Pyranha Fest, held at the Treweryn white water centre north Wales (Look here for more info). Roll on the winter season,
speak soon
