gyork Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Come out and camp/paddle during prime time! Home Base will be Lobster Buoy Campsites in S. Thomaston, Maine, gathered at the Group Site. Arrive Friday, leave Sunday. Paddling options abound: NE to Owls Head, SE to Muscle Ridge, or SW to Port Clyde. These trips are not appropriate for beginners. Minimal skills to participate include wet exit, self and assisted rescue, and previous experience in ocean paddling with conditions of wind up to 15K, waves to 2 feet, and crossings up to 1.5M. Typical pot-luck Friday evening buffet (proper attire please) for those so inclined to participate. Saturday is often a “go into Town” for supper. This trip will be cross-posted to MITA/SMSKN/and NSK to encourage participation from friendly paddlers from all these groups. Rather than limit numbers from each group, I will set the limit to 15 FOR THE GROUP SITE ONLY. Your spot will be secured when I receive payment ($15 per nite) via paypal (gyorkattdsdotnet) or check (private message me). PLEASE DO NOT RSVP ON NSPN CALENDAR UNTIL YOU HAVE SENT YOUR PAYMENT. If you prefer, or if the group site fills to capacity, private sites may be reserved directly with Lobster Buoy Campsites @ 207.594.7546 after May 15.

mharrison Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 In 'normal' conditions, is this more of a Lvl2 or Lvl3 trip? I can handle 15k winds and 2' waves... but not sure for 1.5 miles. I can handle BCU 2* conditions for a while, but 3* tires me out quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eneumeier Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 I note that Thursday Aug. 15 is a full moon. Would anyone like to go up a day early and paddle that evening? Liz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
