Joseph Berkovitz Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 (edited) Gosh, just when it was seeming like weekend club trips were a thing of the distant past, along comes this Level 2 trip. We will meet at Rockport Granite Pier at 9 am with the aim of getting on the water around 9:30 am. This location has ample parking and with so few weekend trips I want to make sure there's room for people. That said I will probably cut this trip off at around 12 people. parking is $12 cash only. The weather forecast is still not reliable but it looks like it may be a cooler and overcast day (yay!) with light winds and swell. If the forecast changes radically, the location might change too, so stay tuned if you sign up. The trip is now waitlisted but sign up here as people may drop out: https://forms.gle/hkFqTeZF8zhfWrGQA You can get tide information, charts and weather forecasts for the area here: https://coastalpaddling.com/42.62360/-70.74577/11?tides=y&date=202208061200 Rockport tides are: Time Type Feet 06:04 am high 8.15 12:00 pm 0.94 12:09 pm low 0.93 06:28 pm high 9.40 Multiple nice plans and paddles are possible from this location and we'll endeavor to pick something that's fun for everyone. If you have any questions about this trip or you're not sure if it's for you please PM me! To join the trip you must be a paid-up NSPN member, and have signed the club participant waiver for this season. Your signup information will only be shared with other members on the trip. Covid-19 paddling: this trip requires paddlers to be vaccinated/boosted against Covid-19 and symptom-free, as rescues or first aid may require close physical contact. Hope you can make it.

Joyce Carpenter Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 I signed up and would love to come, but please bump me if there’s someone with less experience and who can’t make Wednesday paddles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nancysan Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 I signed up, though I have a commitment later in the day, and host has not given specific time yet. Could affect my plans to come, but I hope not. Any idea when we will be off water? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricardo Caivano Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Same thing Joe. I signed up for Saturday but since I can paddle Wednesdays, feel free to bump me if necessary. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph Berkovitz Posted August 2, 2022 Author Share Posted August 2, 2022 I made a terrible mistake and put Lanes Cove in the title of this thread, but the trip is running out of Rockport Granite Pier (https://goo.gl/maps/77FwvbHQnnrJHNKd7). MANY APOLOGIES FOR THE SCREWUP! Please take note of the actual location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frederick Goodman Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 Several people volunteered to give up their spot in case the group is getting too large. I would suggest as an alternative that we break into pods if the group is too large. There's plenty of parking there, and plenty of ocean, and plenty of experienced paddlers to insure safety for a second pod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph Berkovitz Posted August 3, 2022 Author Share Posted August 3, 2022 I’ve been thinking what Fred just said! There is no reason to hold back from signing up, we’ll simply split into manageable pods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
