She'll be right...until it's not!
Summer is here and the holidays are coming! This means bucket-loads of time hanging out, in and around our fresh and salt water hot spots all around the Motu. Waterways are busy, much like the State Highway traffic at this time of the year! It's time to get on the water to have FUN - but be SAFE.
Paddlers (and any water users) in our opinion, should always be prepared for the worst case scenario, just incase it does happen! And one of the key pieces of safety equipment you need when paddling is a buoyancy aid.
Leash It or Lose It

The type of leash you use will depend highly on the environment that you will be paddling in and what kind of paddling you're up too.
