Hi Romaine,
Have a colleague at work that might be in the market for a Canoe.
Could you send some details and a photo, I can pass it along.

Re: Hingham 6/11 or maybe change?
If you don't have an alternate paddling location, perhaps we can do a few Skills nights back to back.
Open to go with the flow, I don't mind the wind but understand it can be a drag.
Happy to do another skills night, at a location that suits folks.

C'mon out and the rust off.
I'll be there around 4:30

My bad, I went yesterday after doing an errand in Abington.
Looks like they cleared a lot of trees along access road. Everything was open and clear, clean and looks to be in great shape for us this season.
Have a great week! See you Thursday

I'll assume Skills would start in mid May.
Look for posting towards the end of the week.
Again, the location(s) can be flexible for those who wish to participate.
