Good day, Thank you to all of you at last night's lake session. And much appreciation to Rick. You all quelled my initial jitters and I had a fun, confidence-boosting experience. Saul, my boat made it home okay. Today I will practice putting the tie-downs on correctly and securing my the boat tightly to my car Be well, and hope to see you soon, Katherine

I would be interested in a weekend paddle, most weekends work for me with a few exceptions. Katherine

I would love too but I will be at a wedding. Maybe the full moon in June?? Katherine

Hi folks, I am picking up my new (pre-owned) and first boat on Thursday afternoon and will be at the lake Thursday eveneing, I hope the weather cooperates. I am SOOOO excited! I am also looking forward to getting in my boat this weekend... That's my subtle way of saying "I'm still not confident nor experienced enough to "post a trip" but... I live on Plum Island with a right-of way a short walk from my house..." high tide is at 1:00 on Saturday... Hope to see a lot of you very soon, I am SO excited! Katherine

I am really looking forward to a night-time paddle... I will be attending a wedding that evening, sorry to miss what I'm sure will be a beautiful night. Katherine

Thanks everyone, I have a better understanding. My misunderstanding was that perhaps L3 and above paddlers wouldn't want to be on a L2 trip becuase it may be boring... Now I see that it is mostly because of feeling uncomfortable with the responsibility. I am picking up my first boat on May 26th (16' Valley Avocet) and will be at the Lake that night. I am a solid level 2 and if I could improve my bracing skills could be a level 3... I hope to join many of your trips, see you soon! Katherine

Wow, very interesitng conversation taking place. I am a newbie to NSPN and someone who would like to become active and increase my skills... I have even coordinated pick-up of my new boat with a lake session. I have a question: Why is it unappealing for L3 paddlers to participate , facilitate, initiate a L2 paddle? Katherine

Hi, I'd like to come for the 1st and 3rd sessions. Katherine Ryan
