Deb,
Glad to have you along! We are meeting at 9 am and want to be on the water as soon after as possible as low tide is 11:45.

Re: Duxbury Bay to Saquish - Saturday May 12
I'd be interested in paddling with you folks if I'm invited. I haven't been to Duxbury yet and I'd like to learn the area. I have a 16 foot boat and all the required accessories. I just started paddling in August so my rough water skills are still undeveloped but it sounds like the waters should be...

Re: Duxbury Bay to Saquish - Saturday May 12
I plan to be paddling in Duxbury Bay tomorrow afternoon (fishing.) I will put in at the boat ramp that I can't remember the name of around noon/low tide and probably paddle out toward Clarke's. I may see you at some point. Look for the tiger-striped sea kayak and a fishing pole. Mark Ok, we will lo...

Sorry you can't make it, Pat!
Fortunately, the season is just beginning (for some of us!), so I'm sure I'll see you out on the water soon.

Duxbury Bay to Saquish - Saturday May 12
A few of us that aren't going to the Cape can't pass up the wonderful weather forecast for tomorrow, so we plan to launch at 9am from Powder Point Bridge in Duxbury and paddle along the bay side of Long Island then follow it out to Saquish Neck. If the conditions are calm, continue on around the nec...
