Wild Turkey Paddlers

I'll plan to be there and will be bringing a friend. Might have to bail if the weather forecast does not hold up.

Happy Birthday Ken! I hope you are getting out on the water occasionally in some sort of boat this summer...

Planning to be there.

Happy birthday Jordan!

Alec, There are also a few overnight parking spaces in the parking lot across from Hull High School. Of course, that makes the paddle to Peddocks Island very short. I've used the parking in Hull for camping on Lovells Island. In my case, we wanted to get to the island quickly, unload the boats, set ...

Keyhole "B" fits my NDK and goes right on Bea's boat.

Briggsy - I have the keyhole "B" for my Cetus HV also.

I'm planning to be there but might skip PPR this week.

I invited Russ Ellis to join us and he is going to try to make it. Russ can represent Bea who is almost always on these paddles.

I think I will come and will plan to bring a watermellon.

Wish I could have gotten the day off from work and joined you!

Glad you had such a perfect day for the trip.

Glad to hear you got a job!

This should be a Hingham Thursday. I think I will be there, but not sure about what time I'll arrive due to a meeting at work that always seems to run late. 5:30 seemed to be the general consensus for a time, last time this was discussed, but I've missed quite a few weeks this year so I'm a little o...

Happy Birthday Tracey!

I won't be working on kayak skills tonight. I will be headed out of town this evening after work and testing my "patience skills" while sitting in the mass exodus of traffic exiting Boston before a long holiday weekend.

I'll be there. Is there an early crowd this week? Diane Diane, As a former early crowd instigator, I'd say no, there will not be an early crowd. Work circumstances have changed for a few of us, so getting to Hingham early is not as easy as last year. With sunset being so late, there will be plenty ...

I'll be there for 5:30.

Five of us got together for a trip on Duxbury Bay. We launched at Powderpoint Bridge. It was a bit windy, but we got some good exercise. We went out around Clark's Island and then over to the Duxbury shore. Please use the link below to enjoy pictures on Facebook that should be accessible to anyone, ...

Hingham or Kiwanee?

Pablo - if it's posted in the skills forum as a skills night, it is Kiwanee.

This is not my answer to Bea's Challenge because it's not a favorite of mine, just a simple trip for some exercise to get in paddling shape. I will post more trips later in the season. Saturday is forecast to be quite breezy, so I think the actual route of the trip will need to be determined at laun...

norm · Re: Skills 6/4/2015 I'll be there too.

I'll be there too.

norm

Dave,

I'm definitely interested too. But, I'm tired of the same old seals, sand and sea grass out there. I want to see a shark this time!

I'm dying to see if they ever did any more to finish up the light-house keepers house. Our tax dollars at work.

Canceling for Hingham tonight. 50% chance of thunderstorms as well as 16mph winds. Too much chance of bad weather for Briggsy to make the trip up here this week, so I'll join the crowd over in Hanson and work on my off-side roll tonight.

Norm

norm

John,

I don't really want a private lesson, so I am going to have to cancel also.

Sorry,

Norm

I just heard from Briggsy who is planning to come to Hingham tomorrow to scout the area for a future navigation class that he is planning to offer. So, there will be a few of us in Hingham tomorrow. We plan to arrive at 4:00pm since he is coming from the cape and is likely to want to get an early st...

norm

John,

I wouldn't mind joining the class to help make it a more economical for everyone. I'm free either day.

Norm

Now that we have decided that this week is Hingham, the big question is: what is the target time to launch?

Shall we say 5:00pm?

kayakerjnj wrote:I thought we have Skills scheduled for this week?

We missed last Thursday for Hingham (for me, I had to work late).

Please look over the tide schedule and see if it lines up better to do Hingham. I could be wrong. That happens all the time.

norm

Is it time to start paddling in Hingham on Thursday evenings?

Tide is high at 8:37pm this week, the 28th of May.

What do people think?

I think the shorter version was probably about ten miles.

Ken Reardon led the first trip of the season on the Charles River but forgot his camera, so he asked me to write the trip report. The trip was 13 miles for the group that chose the longer version where we went through the locks, out into the harbor and over to the U.S.S. Constitution. Please use the...

I'm looking forward to being there.

Definitely interested.

Maybe you guys should have a 10 year re-union paddle at the same place?

Or maybe just a 10 year re-union beer at the BBC.

John - count me in for another surf lesson also when it gets warm.

Hey everybody, it's almost time to start the paddling season! How about a get-together this Thursday night at LongHorn Steakhouse in Pembroke, right off exit 12 of Route 3 in Pembroke. Please RSVP for dinner here by 11:00am Thursday morning if you are coming so we can make reservations. Come for hap...

I think we need a song for skiers too...the ones that only want to head to the mountains mid-week!

Did anyone make it out to see the Snow Row yesterday? I was down and out with a cold and forgot all about it.
