The club is open to all. Although based around Portsmouth; there are many members from further away; London, Reading etc. The Club has boat storage and a changing room at The Tipner Boating and Angling Club as well as use of the clubhouse. However paddling activities start from many locations. These are announced in the Newsletter and via the email group.

There are general purpose boats, equipped with spraydecks, buoyancy aids and paddles, available for training sessions and two sea kayaks, which can be borrowed by members for a nominal charge. Once members have enough knowledge they normally buy their own sea kayak and equipment.
