Joseph Berkovitz Posted August 9, 2020 Posted August 9, 2020 (edited) People: me, Prudence Baxter, David Mercer, Dana Sigall Route: Riverhead Beach (Marblehead) -> MHD Light -> Little Pigs -> Off Rock -> Whales Beach (Swampscott) -> return via Ram Island Conditions: overcast with clearing later, air 70s F, light wind -> E 5-8 kt, 1 ft swell @ 9-10 s Distance: 13.6 nm Launch: 09:30; Land: 15:15 Tides (Marblehead): LT 08:28 0.03 ft HT 14:44 9.00 ft Track: https://www.gaiagps.com/datasummary/track/d6c02523a7a1d143ce866e0b30ca1e09/?layer=gaianoaarnc A delightful ramble including many of the usual rocky spots along the Marblehead and Swampscott coasts and some distance paddling also. Very mild conditions but some play-worthy action near various outcrops especially the Off Rock area. I suspect Prudence has some good pictures because, well, Prudence!

prudenceb Posted August 9, 2020 Posted August 9, 2020 Your suspicion was correct, Joe, bc, well, documentation... Lots of duck families in the calm water at the beginning of the day... So glad David is back, and I know he's happy to be surrounded by rocks and not those Florida alligators! Joe and rocks... Dana and rocks. Not a lot of super action. After Joe examined one slot that I thought might hold out hope for some action/disaster shots, he wisely took a pass. So disappointing! It was a lovely day with splendid company. Thanks for arranging, Joe! Prudence Quote
