Posted June 30, 20232 yr Looking to meet at Long Wharf Landing, Gloucester, MA at 2:00 pm for a fun time experiencing nature and building sea kayaking skills. Will head north on the Annisquam River towards Ipswich Bay. Conditions permitting we’ll check out Annisquam Light and beyond. Snack and stretch break after around 1.5 hours of paddle time. Reenergized we’ll get back on the water to continue exploring and to practice edging, bracing, assisted rescues etc (all optional) as we head back to Long Wharf to wrap up the paddle around 6:00 pm. All skills welcome! Float plan details to be collected via Google Form. High tide @ 3:23 PM Please register at the calendar listing here: Edited June 30, 20232 yr by Ms. Dew
July 2, 20232 yr If I'm not out chasing a car, this is closer than Ipswich and I'd love to join. I'll update as I see how my week plays out.
July 7, 20232 yr Author Marine forecast looks like we prob won’t make it out of the river. But we’ll have plenty of cool coves to check out. S winds 5 to 10 kt, increasing to 10 to 15 kt with gusts up to 20 kt in the afternoon. Seas around 2 ft. Patchy fog. Vsby 1 nm or less. Def a dress for immersion paddle. Very much looking forward to getting out on the water.
