Launch from Abigail Adams Park on route 3A at 1:00pm. Explore Weymouth Back River, Hewitts Cove, Grape and Slate Islands and maybe out to Sheep Island. My thought is to head into the river first on the incoming tide and head up to the far end as I did last week. Then come back out and head around into Hewitts Cove. Then probably head out to the left of Grape Island and maybe out to Sheep Island, back in to Slate Island and then maybe over towards the Hingham Yacht Club and then back along the coast into Hewitts Cove and back to the take out. The distance and speed can be altered to accommodate the paddlers that want to join me.
Probably 10 - 12 miles. Some open water paddling unless the afternoon winds pick up or people want to stay in more sheltered areas. Will probably stop once to stretch. Could be out there 3 to 4 hours. Not planning to hike around on any islands as I can't walk far at the moment.
