Wild Turkey Paddlers

Hi Dottie, I'll be a little late getting back in the water this season. Please watch this forum for those who will be going to Hingham. For Hanson, I'm not able to play in the boat but can help with coaching. Again look for the regulars to post in the Skills section of the forum when they're ready t...

Please feel free to holler if anyone would like to take this for a test drive

Greetings all, Warm weather is likely around the corner for us all. This year, I will have a late start getting wet, as I'm still rehabilitating from a recent shoulder surgery. I would be happy coach from the dock or from the shore for those who might like some one on one time. Additionally, I'm ava...

Hi all, Seems this ole paddler needs some additional repairs to correct the original shoulder work I had done previously. Below is an animation of the procedure I'll have done on my Left, and eventually my Right Shoulders. https://vimeo.com/122233562 Hoping to get whole again before the end of the s...

Hi Buck,

For cold weather paddling my go to booties are the NRS Boundary Boots

https://www.nrs.com/product/2308/nrs-boundary-shoe

There's some ankle height stuff too.

Staying warm and dry while paddling is always a good thing!

Good luck!

kayakerjnj

Looking forward to it!

kayakerjnj

Thank you Bea for pulling together a fun evening!

Great to see everyone!

kayakerjnj

When in Rome....... I'm flexible, I'm good with wherever the gang wishes.

Hi Doug,

Hope your Thanksgiving was a great day.

See you soon!

kayakerjnj

Great evening in Hingham last night.

By far the warmest water of the season, and perfect downwind return!

Can you see the smile I still have on?!

Thanks for a fun evening everyone!

kayakerjnj

I have his instructional DVD's, good stuff!

The way I keep it straight: Its the pointy end I see when I'm sitting in my boat! Just follow us, you'll get the hang of it LOL

Happy to have you join us!

See you Thursday!

kayakerjnj

Looks like it will be a warm evening to conclude the season in Hingham this year.

5:00 PM Sharp, launch time. Sunset is ~ 6:31 PM

Please post if you're planning to go.

kayakerjnj

Seems like this is less than optimal night for this. I'll save everyone the suspense, lets call it now.

Have a good rest of the week, and weekend everyone.

kayakerjnj

Some good tips and demonstration

Great pictures, and a fun day!

Thank you to all!

kayakerjnj

Happy you and Deb fared so well.

Another testament to your preparedness and survival instincts.

Bea had told us you were okay, but happy to see you back on-line, with AC again, and getting back to some normalcy.

Stay safe!

kayakerjnj

Hi all,

As much we all wanted to savor and extend the summer we've had, its just about done..... Hopefully the fall will continue to favor us with good paddling weather.

Are folks interested / planning on attending one last Thursday in Hanson to cap off the season?

Let me know

kayakerjnj

Thanks to Ken & Bob and the whole gang for a fun day today.

Started out flat and foggy, finished sunny and fun!

As you wish

I'll be there too!

kayakerjnj

The scheduling winds changed in my favor! See you this afternoon!

kayakerjnj

Hi all,

There's a chance I may get sucked into covering a 3:30 meeting, for my boss who is travelling this week. I am hoping for it to be rescheduled and for me to be in Hingham on schedule.......I'll know more this afternoon.

Enjoy the great afternoon, either way!

kayakerjnj

Thanks Ken,

Which parking area within the park are we meeting at? Did I miss the routes for the day somewhere? You can feel free to email if that would be easier.

Have a good evening

kayakerjnj

The videos came from Sensei Chris

There are tons of great instruction videos to get tips. Happy they helped.

See you soon

kayakerjnj

Good Morning Ken,

Please count me in. I haven't done this trip with the group, and I'm looking forward to it. I'll have to get the scoop on the cook out so I can help with the festivities.

kayakerjnj

Hi all,

Wondering if there's any interest in a paddle this Thursday?

Sing out if there is. 6:55 PM Sunset, means a 5 PM launch time.

Have a good week!

kayakerjnj

See you there!

kayakerjnj

Last Thursday Night in August........ Almost doesn't seem possible.

Should be a good night.

5:00 PM Launch, Sunset is ~ 7:20 PM

Please RSVP, if we have 6 or more I can make PPR Reservations.

Have a great week!

kayakerjnj

Sea Kayaking will never be the same.........So much of the Cape coast line is becoming a keep out area for the summer......

Sadly it's only going to get worse.

kayakerjnj

Good Video on the Subject

Should be a picture perfect Thursday for the last session in August!

Hope our good weather will allow for plenty of time to practice and play well into September.

Have a good week!

kayakerjnj

Tonight Launch by 5:30

We may start bringing that in over the last two or three gatherings for the season. Sunset is 7:41 PM this evening.

Will make reservations for 7:45 PM at Stars

kayakerjnj

Hope everyone had a good weekend.

This week is scheduled for Hingham this Thursday.

Please RSVP if your are coming and whether or not you'll be going to PPR.

Cheers!

kayakerjnj

Holy cow!

I had no idea we had so many secret squirrels that were itching for a practice session!

Canton makes having a big crowd looks small

Almost didn't have enough nuts for everyone

Fortunately Chris (Sensei) was there to help handle the prime number of people.

Have a good weekend!

kayakerjnj

Greetings all, The tide schedule in Hingham has forced us to shift the normal Thursday rotation to avoid the dreaded low tide mud fest. I'm planning to do / go to a skills session in Canton this Thursday. All those who are up for some practice and fun, c'mon over! I will be there ~ 4 PM Have a good ...

kayakerjnj

Greetings all, We've hit that time of year when a shift in schedule is necessary to avoid low tide at Hingham on Thursday. This coming Thursday is that day. Folks should either think of alternative location or we can double up on skills for this week. Always best to start planning earlier than last ...
