rylevine Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 (edited) Friends, Romans, Paddlers, NSPN Wednesday Lunch Paddle #9 takes place on June 26, 2019. This week's installment launches from the Rt 1A put-in at Hampton Harbor (On the left side driving north just before the 1A bridge. There is a large parking lot and bathrooms.). This trip doesn't have a specific level: we'll determine the route based on who shows up, what people want to do, and what the environment wants to do. All properly equipped members are welcome: please bring rigged boats with deck lines, bulkheads, spray skirts, and dress for immersion. Current forecast is variable winds 5 kt or less. Partly sunny. Seas around 2 ft. Magicseaweed for Hampton Beach is showing 6 second 2.5 foot primaries and about 80F. Low Tide is at 1pm. Let's meet at 10 am sharp, and ready to launch around 10.20 am. Then we'll have a beach briefing, make a plan together based on what people feel like doing, and get on the water, hopefully around 10.30 am. NOTE: The Wednesday Lunch Paddles are cooperative adventures, not guided trips. Each participant is responsible for her/his own safety. Don’t assume the trip initiators are smarter, stronger, better at rough water, more attractive, or more skilled paddlers than you are. For more information, see this description of our trip philosophy from the NSPN web site. A waiver/float plan will be created at the launch, so there's no need to commit in advance. It's always 100% OK to show up, decide you don't like the conditions or the trip, and opt out. If you have any questions, or if you haven’t paddled with Bob Levine before, please get in touch with @rylevine by private message before the event so we can touch base! If you're interested in coming, it's nice if you let us know by posting on this thread. There is no calendar entry for this particular trip. Other conversation (including stating your interest in going) can also happen on this thread. Looking forward to seeing you there!

Sue Two Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 I'll be there:) Jeff is bringing me a boat. See you at the parking lot on the left just past the 1A bridge. Sue PS. Jim are you going to be sculpting a castle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rylevine Posted June 26, 2019 Author Share Posted June 26, 2019 Sue, I just saw this. Just to be clear (less unclear?) the south side of the parking lot is at 210 Ocean Blvd, Seabrook, NH 03874. It is showing an establishment called the Scoot-n-Around. If you are driving north you will see this on the left side of Rt 1A which is Ocean Blvd. If you have hit the bridge then you've gone too far.

Jim Snyder Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Unless the forecast has changed I'll be mowing hay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alcoons Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Jim, While the WeatherUnderground report for the NH coast looks pretty nice by the time we are to start, their weather map says it is 40 BELOW ZERO in Lawrence, MA right now! All other towns as expected. Guess I may have to crank up the heater for a bit on the way up from Boston! Enjoy the hay. Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
