That's so weird.. Full? We don't even have one kayak club in the whole of South Africa. We supposedly have one here in the Cape but I don't even know anyone who is a part of that. Kayaking here is a lot more uninhibited if I can call it that. We don't have any star ratings or anything like. Just a bunch of guys get together and paddle whatever they want. Simple. I guess things are a lot more organised and structured in Europe and that's great but it can also have it's disadvantages.

Good luck, I hope you come right! :)
