SeaKayakNE Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 (edited) Anyone interested in paddling on July 4th? I was thinking Riverhead Beach to Misery Island? I figure we can launch at 9:30AM. Edited June 28, 2017 by jonathanoltz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prudenceb Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 I might be, altho the thought of traffic on the way home strikes fear in my heart! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhabich Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Fireworks barges will be set up between Misery and West Beach, possibly around Marblehead too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaKayakNE Posted June 29, 2017 Author Share Posted June 29, 2017 Mike, Darn, where did you source the info from? Might rearrange the plan in that case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mhabich Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 I watch the fireworks from West Beach, and you can also see Marblehead's from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkhederian Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 (edited) Jonathan, I would most likely be up for it. As far as traffic (as someone mentioned), if we get an early start as Jonathan suggested we might be out of there before the firework crowds come. Also, as far as the boats setting up for fireworks, I would think that we could stay a good distance away from them, esp. if its between West Beach and Misery (we can stay on the Bakers Island side of Misery). Just my two cents... Bob K. Edited June 29, 2017 by rkhederian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaKayakNE Posted June 29, 2017 Author Share Posted June 29, 2017 Prudence, I think if we launch early and keep up the typical pace we can be off the water well before the firework crowd. Dave, Hope you can join us this is a great trip! Bob K, I'd agree with you we can adjust lunch plans if need be but from what I am able to source the barge will be setup just NE of the beautiful Marblehead Light. If I find any information that looks like it could prevent the trip I will post here but as of now we are a go. Hope you can make it Bob! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
