Sunday marks the first time the team uses the new dragon boat paddles.

Christmas has come early for Bourne Water Dragons.

Our new dragon boat paddles have arrived and with the help of Ian, all paddles have been checked and are ready to tread some water!

Our Sunday paddle marks the first day the custom paddles propel the team to another enjoyable ride.

Thank you to Pink Ribbon Foundation and to Peter at Stylo Sports paddle gear, who have looked after us.
