AENGUS!:
Just thought I'd explain the reasons for what I got..... Think a good cag is probably the best thing to get first, cos I've worn a dry cag before and the difference is huge...keeps you really warm, and when you take it off at the end of the day(a bit of a struggle!) all of your thermals are still dry which is class!

The reason I went for a paddle aswell is that having used good paddles a couple of times the difference I noticed was huge. It really can make a difference to your paddling, where as once you have a helmet or a bouancy aid on it doesn't really make a huge difference wether it's a club one or your own. Obviously I'm not exactly hugely experienced but that's just what I've found!! ;D

Ley-Ley:
If your willing to pay for top notch for great quality termals then you should have a look at this company

They are aimed at divers but I don't see why you couldn't use it for Kayaking. I don't know if GOD's do them but there's a dive shop beside Ringsend bus garage that do them, or if you want you could give me the money and I could get you one in the Kilkee dive shop when we head down!

Douchier:
To dip slightly aside for a mo' I was pricing a helmet from a uk site. I thought to investigate how much shipping cost for a boat was. Myself and Karen were slightly suprised.

Evan:
That's because they're using a courier instead of a haulage company like DHL. You could probably get it a lot cheaper if you arranged for one of the big companies to collect it on your behalf and then to deliver to you.

I just checked wetsuit outlet and they seem to charge a flat rate delivery charge of £6.95 even for a GT

Matt:
Niall I saw that myself today. I found a site that charges £52 for shipping a boat to Ireland from the UK
