Wed. Lunch Paddle 7/20/22: Winthrop Boat Launch

Recommended Posts

This week's WLP is on July 20, 2022 and will launch from Winthrop Boat Ramp.  Parking is free since we will not be using the actual launch ramp.

Let's meet up no later than 9:30 am and depart promptly at 10:00 am in order to catch favorable currents out of Boston Harbor and head for some of the outer islands to cool off. It will be a hot sunny one with air temps reaching the low 90s. Sea is forecast to be calm. 

You can get tide/current information, charts and weather forecasts here:

This trip is now full but you can join the wait list here: https://forms.gle/RCoySYHzxMeyhzT69

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.

Trip level: WLPs do not have a specific level. All properly equipped members are welcome: please bring boats with rigged deck lines, bulkheads, spray skirts, and dress for immersion.

NOTE: The Wednesday Lunch Paddles are cooperative adventures, not guided trips. We encourage paddlers to make their own independent decision about their comfort level with conditions at the time of the paddle. Each participant is responsible for her/his own safety. Don’t assume the trip initiators are smarter, stronger, better at rough water, more attractive, or more skilled paddlers than you are. For more information, see this description of our trip philosophy from the NSPN web site. 

Please PM me if you have questions or if you haven’t paddled with us before.

Hope to see you there!

Joe Berkovitz

(Note: Bob can't make this Wednesday nor many Wednesdays to follow due to travel and other commitments.)
