Press Release from Fatyak Kayaks
Stratford Sea Cadets test out the Fatyak Kaafu
Stratford-upon-Avon Sea Cadets are part of the UK’s oldest nautical youth charity, and the cadets have been trying out the Fatyak Kaafu. This is some of the feedback the cadets have given us:
‘Loved it!’
‘I like how you can pull your knees up.’
‘It’s really smooth on the water.’
‘You can go really fast.’
The staff also loved it. They found that for some of the more nervous beginners the sit on top Fatyak Kayak offers a good starting point as they can often feel a little claustrophobic in a standard kayak and worry about getting out if they tip.
‘So thank you so much, the cadets are having so much fun on the Fatyak and will continue to do so all summer.’
Every year Stratford Sea Cadets take part in the Stratford-upon-Avon River Festival. This is a huge event for the town and being Stratford it is also a big draw for tourists and the river is right at the heart of the town. Every year there are cadets on the river in their rowing boats and kayaks demonstrating their skills. This year there will be a cadet on a Fatyak and also a stand within the festival area on the river bank publicising the Sea Cadets, recruiting new cadets/volunteers and fundraising. Fatyak will be providing a Hono Bodyboard for a raffle prize plus other great givaways!
Stratford-upon-Avon River Festival 2017
Cadets from TS Gurkha demonstrated their water skills once again this year at the River Festival. Organisers estimated 80,000 visitors came to this event, so this was a perfect opportunity to show both the people of Stratford and those from further afield what we do throughout the summer.
