   news

   Ian Player, the founder of the iconic Dusi Canoe Marathon, passed away on the weekend, just days before the Commemorative Dusi Canvas Journey, a four-day trip from Alexander Park in Pietermaritzburg to Durban's Blue Lagoon, begins. The event, which starts on Thursday, features a select group of invited paddlers and takes place in craft similar to those used in the first Dusi Canoe Marathon in 1951.
