Morning all,

Red Dagger Mamba (I think, ...or very similar at least) and light blue Double Dutch Paddles lost on the Dargle this morning. Paddler is fine.

It happened at the drop above the main drop. Paddler got stuck under a stray branch and had to abandon ship. No sign of the boat or paddle for the rest of the trip. If anybody spots either boat or paddle please call John @0863831024.

Thanks,

Eoin.

Ps. Lots and lots and lots of water on the Dargle this morning. Tones of fairly hefty stray branches lodged temporarily between rocks and making their way gradually downstream. Pretty hairy, but exhilarating to say the least.

i left it high up in a tree on river right 100m down from the big drop. Its intact but the right blade is loose i think.

 That tree at the hole below the big drop is shifting down and becoming more of a hazard.

Hi Brian,

Were they the light blue Double dutch ones by any chance? 

Thanks,
