We are looking for a reliable paid volunteer to be support boat driver to:

~ Remind them of the Rules of the Road at Seat (all have had formal training).
~ Identify and communicate hazards to the Steerer.
~ Setup and pack down

~ Keep training locker in orderly fashion

~ Report any equipment repair requirements
~ Daily motor flush.

Other than that it's sitting and enjoying the water and sometimes take a coach on board to do a bit of filming.

Teams that train are:

• Secondary schools
• Breast cancer survivors
• Mixed teams
• Women's teams

All water lovers and are very social. Safety Operating Procedures are in place, handover will be provided.
