Bow Valley Kayak Club

Hey all. Stolen boat report. We stashed a Medium Karma (orange and yellow colouring) and a Large Ripper (green and yellow) at the put it for the Nanaimo River,... Bridge to House Rock section. We dropped our boats there at 11:10am, came back with shuttle at 11:40am and they were gone. The Ripper has the drain plug distinctly glued back in. If you could keep your eyes out for these boats, that'd be appreciated. Cheers. See more
