I think I'll bring my boat to work tomorrow and do some paddling on the Charles River Basin. I get off work at about 3:00, so I figure I can get there by 4:00. Planning to launch near the Charles River Canoe and Kayak kiosk across from Harvard Stadium at 1071 Soldiers Field Road. Hope to be on the water by 4:30.
Wet exit/Rescue skills are required.
I would recommend at least a 15 foot boat.
Ability to paddle 7-12 miles.
Proper clothing and gear for cold water temps.
Please reply if you are planning to attend.

Sorry nobody else was able to join us today. It was beautiful out on the Charles. The water temp there is about 60 degrees. Much warmer than ocean water! Air temp was close to 70.
Nice to meet you Pablo. Looking forward to paddling together again.
