July 8 - Hingham-Inner Islands


alcoons

Recommended Posts

When: Sunday, July 8th.

Where: Hingham Harbor Park, Peddocks, Grape Island. Maximum 10 miles. See http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=1110855 for maximum route.

Timing: Low Tide is at noon on Sunday, so we need to leave on time at 9:45 AM. Arrive at the put-in at 9 AM. Lunch at Peddocks. Hope to return by 3 PM.

Put-in: http://www.nspn.org/play-put-ins.html

Level: Level 2+/3-- due to distance, possible chop, and possible current at Hull Gut. Should feel comfortable with the distance, have an ocean kayak, and basic wet-exit and self-rescue skills.

The other stuff:

Trip depends on having others committed to the paddle and finding/buying a second boat (wife will be along). I should have one by Sunday.

Please confirm your interest here or at kayakclass @ verizon dot net

Please check this string for updates.

Bring lunch, plenty of water, sunscreen, etc.

This is a private trip so show-and-go rules apply.
