Safety

Safety is at the forefront of every event we organise and that is why we have implemented structured measures specifically for dragon boat events;

• Full risk assessment & Safety Event Plan
• Regularly tested buoyancy vests & powered safety boats from PLA registered 5.6m RIB to our 3.4m inflatable for the tighter spaces with inflatable platforms
• Emergency Medical Technician on the day with a response kit
• Public Liability Cover at £10 million
• Qualified event staff – helms (who steer the dragon boats), boat marshals (who give your team a full safety briefing with paddling tips) and Event Manager (making sure everything is safe and secure on the day)

Our Event Staff

Our staff have years of experience in running our dragon boat events. Not only they will make sure you are safe but will probably enjoy the event as much as you! Any day on the water is a win-win for us, full of laughter and great energy. We expect nothing less!

We have delivered hundreds of events at venues across the UK and have built outstanding relationships with venues suitable for dragon boat events whether it be in London, Leeds, Bristol, Glasgow or anywhere in between!
