rfolster Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 As Shari pointed out, Bob is returning from a camping trip and should have an update for the group tonight or tomorrow as he indicated in the original post. My guess would be that paddling "to Bakers" might just mean the general area around Bakers, for which there are many islands to play around, and maybe some options for lunch. In the mean time, is anyone bothering to familiarize themselves with the tides and weather for the general area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rylevine Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 I agree with Leon and Rick. We can land on the Gooseberries and/or Misery like in previous years.Looks like calm conditions tomorrow, so we can follow the traditional route through Childrens (crossing the M'head channel) - Cormorant Rk gap, then out to Gooseberries, possibly Dry Breakers (although should avoid if seals are present - as likely), around Bakers, and Misery for lunch. Details can be sorted out depending on interests. Given the numbers it is a good idea to break up into 2 or so pods; each following a similar route or endpoint at lunch. In previous years we've had a separate pod go over to donate gel coat to the dry breakers. There will be plenty of rocks around as we will be out there at low tide (see Rick's posting). Doug is running an alternative L3-L3+ trip probably with less distance, more action in rock gardens, and possibly the beach at Devereux. That is an option for people as well. Here is the forecast for tomorrow.http://graphical.weather.gov/sectors/massachusettsMarineDay.php#tabsThe Salem Ferry is running. Here is the schedule for tomorrow.SaturdayDeparts Salem - 8 AM, 10:30 AM, 1 PM, 4 PM & 8 PM Departs Boston - 9:30 AM, 11:30 AM, 2:30 PM, 5:30 PM, & 9 PMIt usually arrives to the M'head channel about 45 minutes after departing Boston. We may end up briefly waiting for it to pass at M'head tip on the way out, and then keep an eye for it coming in at 3:15.See everyone tomorrow morning at 9:30, Riverhead.Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glad Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 I'd like to join the one of the L3 pods. I just twisted my ankle so a little extra help getting my boat to and from the water would be very welcome.See you all tomorrow unless my foot takes a turn for the worst.Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katherine Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Hi fellow level 3-ers,It seems probable that I will be demo-ing a new boat tomorrow ~ so I ask for patience, maybe even a little more than I usually require :-)See you soon,Katherine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will be plenty of us there, and I can definitely vouch for the generosity of the members of NSPN when it come to help carrying boats!

Katherine Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 So... I seem to have two boats on my car, neither of which are mine. Anyone on the L3 interested in paddling one in the AM & the other one after lunch? They are an Anas Acuta and a Nordkapp LV. Oh, and, both are for sale.
