CCF Adventurous Training Camp

In the last week of the Easter break we conducted our largest ever CCF camp, with 67 cadets and eight officers, on the Isle of Wight for a week of watersports AT (Adventurous Training).

Based at the UKSA centre in West Cowes, the cadets endured the island’s highest ever recorded tide and the tail end of Storm Kathleen. Despite the challenging wind and tidal flow conditions at the start if the week, we enjoyed a very full programme afloat on SUPs, kayaks, dinghies, windsurfers, keelboats, self-built rafts and a pool-based sea survival exercise. With good kit, excellent instruction, plentiful food and great enthusiasm, everyone rose to the challenges set and had their water comfort zones stretched.
