Re: Squantum Point Park - Ok For Kayak Launch?

I had an hour to kill this afternoon before a meeting at Marina Bay so I explored Squantum point. I did find what looks to be a great spot. It was close to high tide when I was there, however looking at the satellite image it appears that it might be inaccessible except at high tides. There is plent...

Re: Looking for a group paddle this sunday

If you do head out in Plymouth bay this weekend be very conscientious of the time/tide, low tide will be at 3:30pm.
The most popular launch spot is at Stevens field, however it is not accessible +/- 2 hours of most low tides due to mud flats.

Jordan, thanks for the input. I will add the additional ½” per side and see what that does for me. I guess I have always made up for the butt movement by over compensating with my legs. I will try to set me schedule so that i can make it to hingham next week or at least to Hanson in 2.
