leong Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 Monday looks like the warm but windy (SSW 18) pick of the week. Anyone up for a midday paddle? Tuck's? Ern You beat me to the punch Ern. How about leaving from Gloucester HS (Annisquam River) instead? That way we can paddle out to the river mouth on the north side and see what the conditions are. If good, we can paddle east towards Folly Cove or west towards Cranes beach. If the conditions are really bad we could hang around in the river or perhaps go into Gloucester harbor.

subaruguru Posted December 14, 2008 Author Share Posted December 14, 2008 So far so good. Just gotta make sure I keep my fingers warm as I have a piano recital next Sunday. I'll need directions for the HS put-in. 11AM? Any others wanting a casual winter paddle? Ern Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Directions to Gloucester HS: Route 128 North to Grant Circle (a little past the bridge over the Annisquam) Enter Roundabout and take first exit onto Washington St. In about 0.3 miles turn right onto Centennial Ave In about 0.4 miles turn right when you see the HS (Leslie O Johnson Rd) Drive counterclockwise around the HS to the boat ramp (if the way to the boat ramp is blocked drive back out to Centennial, make left and look for a left to get you to the water) Note: this is different than the NSPN directions (it avoids crossing the drawbridge over the Blyman canal) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subaruguru Posted December 14, 2008 Author Share Posted December 14, 2008 Leon and I are on for Monday 11AM at the Gloucester High School. Will stay close in if winds are as forecast.

Scott Lundquist Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Hey Ern, did you guys go, and how was it? Sorry I couldn't join you today, it sounded like you had a good plan given the conditions. Hopefully next time! -- Scott Leon and I are on for Monday 11AM at the Gloucester High School.
