Kevin B (RPS Coach) Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 If I decide not to do the Cape Ann trip, any interest in surfing off of Cranes? Surf forecast looks to be predicting 3/4 footers although I'm new predicting surf. Post here if interest and I'll decide which trip to do on Sat. This would be good for those not yet used to surf. UPDATE--CONOMO POINT 1PM PUT IN---RIDE TIDE OUT TO CRANES TO SEE WHAT"S AROUND. IF NO SURF, WILL FIND ROCKS. USUAL SNG RULES APPLY... PLEASE POST INTEREST. IF NONE, MIGHT PADDLE ESLEWHERE. FOR THOSE NEW TO SURF, GOOD PLACE TO START LEARNING...DON"T WORRY ABOUT BEING A BURDEN SINCE I LOVE RESCUE PRACTICE . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsigall Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 I'd join you Kevin. I'll be looking for an updates on the Cape Ann trip in the meantime. Dana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Hazard Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 I may be up for a little surf on Sunday, too. Have to be afternoon, though, as I'm occupied in the morning. If no good surf, a little rock-garden play? Rob Explorer - off-quill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob budd Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 If you want those options consider Lane's Cove, a quick trip to Crane's or the rocks of Cape Ann. There was bouncy stuff here and there, enough to practice bongo slide and return to the water for a novice, but nothing clean for those satisfying long rides. Really flattened out in the PM also. Best of luck if you do go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
great_blue Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 Sounds interesting..... Do you think the conditions would suit a relative surf novice? I haven't paddled around Cranes before although I've been off Wingaersheek and in the upper Annisquam. Nice bumping into you at nesc this morning; how'd the Merrimac treat you?

Kevin B (RPS Coach) Posted October 8, 2006 Author Share Posted October 8, 2006 The Big Mac was ripping as always...always a great place to learn about current...she never ceases to surprise:) You're coming out tomorrow, right? Haven't seen you on the water since that meeting by chance off of Wakiki Beach... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin B (RPS Coach) Posted October 8, 2006 Author Share Posted October 8, 2006 Carl, Rt 128N to the exit for rt133 towards Essex. Follow 133 for a couple of miles until you see a British pub. Turn at the pub and follow that road for about a mile until you see a sign on the left for Conomo Point. Stay to the left on that road and you'll come to the water. The put in will be on your right marked by a sandy lot with picnic tables. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brwells Posted October 8, 2006 Share Posted October 8, 2006 One correction - the pub will be on the LEFT, you turn RIGHT when you see the pub. Kevin, your other left! Brian P&H Capella 163 Red/White/Black trim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin B (RPS Coach) Posted October 8, 2006 Author Share Posted October 8, 2006 Hey Brian, Thanks for catching that oversight...are you coming along tomorrow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brwells Posted October 8, 2006 Share Posted October 8, 2006 Would love to (really!) but I have another hobby that is begging for attention tomorrow: rockets. There is a big launch tomorrow in Amesbury and I have some large rockets I am sending up. Thanks for the enjoyable paddle today, Kevin.
