Sat 6/30 Ned's Point around West Island 9:30 AM Launch

Post by kayakerjnj »

Hi all,

I was thinking about doing a familiar favorite route.

http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=5532716

The conditions are predicted to have some winds out of the SW 8-11 kts So the thought was to paddle counter clockwise around West Island could potentially give us a fun return trip.

It's about a 13 + mile trip, and we may / likely encounter some wind. It's still only Wednesday, so the conditions are bound to be in flux.

Please have a sea kayak (> 15') able to handle yourself in wind and chop, self rescue proficiency and able to handle the mileage.

Please RSVP for the trip.

9:30 AM Launch

Put in location: http://maps.google.com/maps?q=Ned+Point,+Mattapoisett,+Plymouth,+Massachusetts+02739&hl=en&ll=41.652104,-70.79577&spn=0.013388,0.027874&sll=41.492537,-99.901813&sspn=6.870106,14.27124&geocode=FfqKewIdz7_H-w&hnear=Ned+Point&t=m&z=16

I believe there are facilities on site :)

Why do you care Nelson? Do you just want to know which day you are "arm-chair paddling" this weekend? :D

Hi Jordan.

Sorry for the late reply. Had to clear
something on my schedule.
I would like to join you on Saturday, 6/30.
This works well for me. It's only 10 minutes
away from my house.

See you there at 9:00.
