Re: Whale Watch 2 ??? - Saturday, May 4th ???
The forecast for Saturday is not looking good - winds to 20 knots, seas 3 feet or more. Sunday is looking better with winds forecasted to drop to 9 knots , but seas at Race Point will stlll be 3 feet. Race Point low tide is 2:30 on Sunday, so if the seas drop, then a put in of about 11 would be idea...

Re: Whale Watch 2 ??? - Saturday, May 4th ???
Hi. I paddled from Manomet Point almost to Ellisville today, and there were no whales. I saw a news blurb yesterday from Race Point, and they were there again. Mid week there were 60 between Scituate and Green Harbor. It's a baffling year. l'm watching the forecast in hopes of making it out to ptown...

Re: Provincetown Whale Watch: April 27, Saturday - New Date
Sorry you didn't have much luck - I hear there were many whales in Manomet on Saturday. They are back in full force. Jim F. and I went today and had a few great sightings. We spent some time with a Northern Right that was surface feeding, a humpback that breached several times, a few unknown flukes,...

Re: Provincetown Whale Watch: April 13 or 14 - POSTPONED 2 W
I'm going to watch the weather for this Sunday - April 21. Right now the forecast is favorable, and low tide is at 11:16. If we meet at 9:45/10 and shove off at 10:30 we can catch the tail end of the tide out, be at Race Point at slack tide, and then come back with the tide. Let me know if anyone is...

Re: Provincetown Whale Watch - April 13 or 14
I was out there a couple of weeks ago -- the side of the parking lot we launch from was plowed free of sand. There has been a lot of erosion, but it's gradual there, and putting in will not be a problem. Count me in!

Meet at 5:30 (yes, on Saturday). By then there is no charge to get onto the beach. I've typically gotten back just around 10, we'll shoot to get there just before 10.
I'll bring a bocce set.

OK-let's move this to Plymouth Beach - just past Sandy's Restaurant, at the hole in the wall. We won't have to watch the channel, and this will be an easier put-in and take-out than Nelson Park due to the tide, limited water, and the fact that the ramp at Nelson Park is undermined, leading to a long...

Thanks about the note on Friday - I'm planning the Saturday night version as the moon comes up (almost) in the dark, and although it's just past full, I think it's more beautiful rising in the dark. Plus the traffic this weekend... I'll gather a consensus on a time to meet. There are a few folks tha...

Gif, Browns Bank is just outside Plymouth Harbor. (No GPS, can't give the coordinates!!)

Nelson Park would be a decent launch site as opposed to using P...
