Kayak Share Club Inc (KSC) is a new initiative and is open to anyone who wants to paddle in the heart of Sydney Harbour, Middle Harbour (Balmoral to Roseville) and Greenwich. The share scheme was started by a keen group of Neutral Bay kayakers who sought to keep some kayaks on Hayes St Beach at Neutral Bay when North Sydney Council voted for all kayaks to be removed from the beach as a way to reduce the number of kayaks. It became a win-win solution for the community of paddlers, beachgoers and the Council. The club is solely recreational and does not run competitive events except a paddle to the next coffee spot! The KSC fits well within the model of other kayak clubs. The only difference is we have a share boat principle, which is progressive when you think about the waste of resources and so much equipment lying idle on the foreshores.
