19 Kayakers go missing on a night paddle to Salt Island
and were found drifting some 20km offshore....
(some quotes from the rescued kayakers)
We knew we were in trouble when the 19 Aldi glow lights simultaneously malfunctioned. [R Kavanagh]
We tried to keep the group together but between the frantic searching of wallets for Aldi receipts and an impromptu rolling session, I knew we were in trouble [A Horner]
I thought it was a game [New club member]
After lighting all three of my petrol stoves, I knew not only would we attract attention but there's never a bad time for a cuppa [J Haines]
I love the east coast kayak club [anon]
