Thacher Island from Rockport - June 9, 2013
Posted: Wed Jun 12, 2013 7:35 am
Six of us did a trip from Granite Pier in Rockport to Thacher Island last Sunday. It was a perfect day for an exposed off-shore paddle with fantastic weather and very little boat traffic.
Thacher Island has a very rocky shoreline and is just about impossible to land on but there is a nice wooden ramp for small boats to use. Here is a video of Steve landing on the ramp. He was the last to land and seemed to have the most waves action following him in. http://vimeo.com/68014936
It's been taking me too long to write trip reports here, so I'm resorting to Bea's method and created an album on Facebook. Here is a link that should give access to the picture album even for non-Facebook users: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.603600622991530.1073741824.100000247920357&type=1&l=1b88bc9d6d
Bea has an album also and I'm sure she'll add a link to it if she's not off traveling around the world somewhere this week.
