Paddle Sat. 10/8- any interest

Post by Linda »

I can't paddle Fri but Sat. looks like nice weather (will watch winds, of course). I was thinking of launching off Pemberton Pt./Windmill Pt. in Hull, going out the Gut, perhaps over to Boston Light (pending winds and boat traffic), then down the shore to the Nantasket area and back (hoping to stop in an out of the way place on the beach for lunch).
High is around 9:32 with the Low at 3:36... I'm thinking a 10 am launch will let us slip in and out of the Gut without much resistance.
Input as to route, timing, or anything else very welcomed... I thought this would be interesting/different and I will be paddling somewhere.

Linda,

I'm interested. My preference would be to go out and around the Brewsters and Calf Island if the conditions are right and one or two more people join us.

Yes, I have been wanting to go to the outer Brewsters all year, as Norm said. Count me in.

Route is less important to me, just looking to paddle. Proposed route was grasping for something 'different' but Brewsters work for me! I feel we definitely should have at least 3 for safety... looks like we have it if no one backs out. More are welcome, of course!
Looks like we have a paddle for Saturday!!!

Should be a perfect day to get out! I wish I could make it on Saturday, but won't be able to join you.

Sunday looks like my day to be able to paddle.

Have a blast!

Looking forward to meeting you on the paddle, Pam. Looks like we could have quite the turn out. I have a friend also joining the group. Looks like the count is 7, right now! WHOO-HOO!

Hi, guys - Because of a family obligation that came up, I will be unable to join the group on Saturday. :( I'm hoping to make it work for the Sunday trip, though. Hope to see some of you then ... need to get on the water! ... Pam

Unfortunately, I cannot paddle both weekend days (I must go mountain biking one of the days). That said, Jordan's trip to Padanaram seems to be more interesting to me, as I have paddle Boston Harbor several times this year. So, I am bowing out of this trip, have a great time.
