Just seeing this now, I'll be around to help out, wherever I'm I'm needed.

I'll do rescue, will need to borrow a club boat and get a lift. Don't really like Sluice. I can do the sweep to the end after as well if needed.

I'll do what I usually do best: wait for a picture that captures the spirit of Descent (almost certainly with my absence) and post it on facebook to convince other friends first there's a sports they probably havent tried and secondly any doubt over my popularity is not necessary. best luck

Sound, provisionally you could go at Leixlip bridge, that'd keep you away from sluice and put you in a better position for sweeping.
What sort of a boat are you thinking of? The club doesn't have much in the way of creekers, but there is a decent selection of old school longer boats that could make the sweep a bit smoother.

Damnit Peter! Go to Sluice, bring a playboat, you'll like it! I mean, it's certainly a unique feature, but after a while you'll warm to its stoic, spartan charms.

I''ll put my name down for rescue and doing the sweet.

Guessing beggars can't be choosers so I take some large tub, better for rescue and sweep. Its about 15km from Leixlip bridge to Island bridge, don't like the sound of that in a playboat. All depends really where I can get a lift too.
