EEL Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 This past Sunday I kept thinking the paddle from Pierce Island was pleasant and would be nice later in the season. Looking at tides, this seems a good day for wandering out to the coastline via Little Harbor on the ebbing tide, down to Rye Harbor for a nice picnic lunch at low tide, then up the coast, and riding the flood back to Pierce. Around 15 NM total with launch time at 10 AM and back by around 4PM. Typical Timid Paddler go no go conditions of winds @15Kts and seas of @ 3'. If you have not paddled this area, its nice trip with a little something for most interests. Ed Lawson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EEL Posted May 26, 2007 Author Share Posted May 26, 2007 Posted this back in March and now off "radar screen" so this update. Typically a nice trip with a good variety of paddling. If the sea mild makes for a nice introduction to paddling on the coast. Timid Paddler conditions limit to be based on Western Shelf buoy off York (GoMOOS BO1) and what we see that morning. Will cancel if raining at launch and no relief in sight or conditions obviously over limit. E-Mail me if you want to be notified of last minute news.

glil Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 Wondering if this trip still on? Same time, same place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EEL Posted June 9, 2007 Author Share Posted June 9, 2007 >Wondering if this trip still on? Same time, same place? Yes. Same Bat channel, same Bat time. Be prepared to pay launch fee at Pierce Island which I believe is $5. Whether they are collecting, I do not know. Forecast now is well within Timid Paddler limits. May well go down river/harbor for a fast start and back via Little Harbor. FYI: When I post a trip, it is going to happen (as regardless I will be there pondering the sanity of launching) unless I post a cancellation the night before.
