Wild Turkey Paddlers

Ken R

Wanted to borrow / Rent / Buy - trailer for 4 or more boats. Bea and I are working on completing the 250 mile Maine Island Trail from Rye NH to Campobello Island Canada. A very road worthy trailer would make commuting and car spotting a lot easier. I will grandly fix lights and grease bearings prior...

Happy birthday Ron. I guess being 0x46 is better than being a 0 x 46.

Might be able to call it a rough water class tonight.

You are actually replying to the original tread / post dated 9/11.
Sorry to hear that you did not see it. It was posted and there was a ton of post leading up to it.
The best thing to do is "Subscribe" to that forum, not to a single conversation.

Ken R

Bea, I can not thank you enough for the effort that you put into trip reports!

Ken R · Re: Newport Sept 17 2017 The views where spectacular that day.

The views where spectacular that day.

Ken R

Thanks all for joining and making this a great day with 2 great adventures.

Ken R

Please bring $5-$10 CASH to allow access to the Lighthouse, it is defiantly worth it on a nice day.

Ken R

I'm bringing chips dip for post paddle social.
I'll have charcoal grill too.

We are planning a picnic after but you might want to bring paddle nutrition as well.

Ken R

The spot labeled Lunch is where we will LAUNCH on Sunday.

Ken R

It looks like there will be 2 groups. The shorter will be 6-9 miles weaving trough the wharfs among the luxury yachts at dock with some time at Rose Island Light. The longer paddle group is being headed up by Bob Clark. He would like to get out into Narragansett bay and log 12-18 miles. Conditions w...

Ken R

There seams to be an issue with the old link to the launch spot. We launch from the beach. As you come through the main entrance follow it around to the right. There is a large building with bathrooms at the beach. You can try to use the following address in a GPS- 38-56 Fort Adams Dr, Newport, RI 0...

Ken R

There is a thread going

Ken R

There are no set routes at this time. The conditions that day will dictate where we head.

Ken R

I have been corrected, the last few years we've just done snacks and sandwiches.

Ken R

In the past I have brought a propane stove and a charcoal grill. Both were available for everyone to use.

Ken R

I'm out

Ken R

I would like to propose a multi-level trip from Fort Adam in Newport RI on September 17th with a Picnic/Cook out following the paddle For the less aggressive, who would like to attend, this location offers up to a 7 mile trek without leaving the inner harbor or crossing channels. For the longer dist...

Ken R

I'm interested but cannot commit yet.

Ken R

This is not an official trip, I’m not leading a paddle. I’m just letting people know what Kit and I are doing Sunday. I figure maybe other paddlers might be interested in joining us at Ned’s Point Lighthouse Park Mattapoisett, Sunday morning @ 10:00 am., paddle out to West Island for some beach time...

Ken R

I may make it too. But don't wait for me.

Ken R

I'm telling you" They don't like the taste of plastic".

I'm in kind of a bind. I'm scheduled to head up to Maine to paddle 75 miles of the coast in 2 days. I was preparing my boat for departure and broke the hatch cover ring. I ended up actually pulling it right off the boat. The adhesive takes 7 days to cure. I looking to buy or borrow a seaworthy exped...

Ken R

I'm re-replying that Kit and I plan to come. We've never been here before so we are newbies to night spitting.

Ken R

Sorry to admit that work is in the way of fun this week, so I cant make it this time.

Ken R

I will be planning on coming

Ken R

John- Today, I'm going to work on modifying my Thursday's schedule. I get back to you later.

Ken R

I know this is last minute but….. I want to go paddling, I know others do to. Meet at mainland side of Duxbury bridge 3 ish, Launch at 3:30, return around 5:30, possible PPR to follow.
Please reply if you intend to come so that I don't take off if you are coming.
Open to all kayakers.

Ken R

I bought a level 6 full drysuit this spring. I am very happy with the quality and workmanship. I also really like the way it fits me.

Ken R

Kate, Sorry I never got a chance to reply to the original post. I LOVE all types of paddles, 5 milers with a stop at the beach to 35 mile trips to get an ice cream on Cutty Hunk. My schedule is very busy. I am as likely to be available on weekdays as I am on weekends. I'll be posting a New Port trip...

Ken R

We'd be interested.

Ken R

A small group of us will be gathering at Sunset Lake in Braintree around 5 this afternoon.
All are welcome.

Ken R

Thanks Gary, I'm surprised you were able to get so close.
