This week's Wednesday Lunch Paddle is on Sept 22, 2021 at Fishermans Beach in Swampscott. We will meet at 9:30 am. The goal will be to get on the water at 10:00am.

Location:  Fishermans Beach in Swampscott MA (https://goo.gl/maps/bebJoJ4ErWUnR9ns6). As you head east on Humphrey St out of the center of Swampscott with the ocean on your right, the parking lot will be on your right just before Puritan Road branches off (a traffic light and gas station will be directly ahead of you). The lot is free. Whether or not you see a space in the lot, go into it and drop your boat and gear on the beach there. If the lot is full there should be plenty of free 2-hour-limit parking spaces on Humphrey and the local knowledge is that this limit is never enforced — much less on a Wednesday morning. Do not park on Puritan Road.

NOAA forecast for Nahant Bay: SSE wind 8 to 10 kt. Partly sunny. Seas around 1 ft. Magic seaweed is showing  2ft low period at the beach; 7mph sustained SE winds with gusting. 

Tentative Plan: Cross to Nahant Beach with possibility for practice landing and launching, and rescues in surf - depending on participant interest. Then proceed up the wind shadowed ledges to East Point. Depending on participant interest and conditions, we may return via Egg Rock.
