A kayaking trip by a group of students from the University of Limerick (UL) on a river in Co Kerry three years ago, during which a young woman drowned, was not suitable for all participants, an investigation has found.
A report by the Marine Casualty Investigation Board into the fatal incident involving a group of 27 members of the University of Limerick Kayak Club, said the trip was not properly assessed for risk given the prevailing conditions on the Upper Caragh River and the skills and experience of those taking part in a high-risk activity.
