LANES COVE launch at 10AM Saturday. Moderate paced paddle towards Rockport, Straitsmouth Island etc. In & out of most coves to play a bit in the rocks & swells. Swing into Rockport and or out to The Little Salvages. Bring food for lunch at a location we will decide as a group.

Please post interest and ideas below or send me an e-mail so I know how many people to expect. Lo tide around 12:18PM. See you on the water. (CAM trip)

I'm a maybe right now Doug. Any chance of moving time up to 11:00?

I'll be there! Looks like it will be a perfect day for a paddle in the Ipswich Bay & Rockport coastal area.

Definitely interested!

Also, FYI, there's a pancake breakfast Saturday at Stage Fort Park in Gloucester Harbor starting at 7:30am. (Sponsored by Gloucester Rotary, it's part of the Gloucester Waterfront Festival, a big two-day event (largely arts/crafts-oriented, I gather) Saturday and Sunday at Stage Fort Park.

Doug,

I plan to launch earlier at Long Wharf on the Jones River (off the Annisquam) and meet you at Lane's Cove.

I will be there on the beach in Lane's at 10:00.

Rob

Doug, locked and loaded, see you Sat.

glenn.

Interested, added motivation to get the weekend's chores done tonight.

I plan to launch (as in butt-in-boat) at 8:45 am to ride the ebb out the mouth of the Annisquam and arrive at Lane's Cove in plenty of time for the beach briefing.

The distance to Lane's is just over 3 nm.

Anyone else feel like getting a jump on the day?

Rob

I'm a possible provided I get my butt out of bed early enough ;-)

Looks like a great day ahead. See you all on the water in the AM. I'll have my radio on ch72 for any late arrivals that may need to catch up.

I've never paddled this section before so looking forward to it. Not looking forward to getting up early though, but ah all part of the game. 10am and a few yawns it is.
