I am in for the 14 miles or less but at least 8. Or the one way pablo

Minot is good as is any part of Boston harbor. Can only do Saturday. A good route is Cohassett to Scituate-North river and back with a stop at Minot light but it is lengthy 16 miles. could do a one way-two car (6 miles) trip if preferred. Pablo Quincy, MA

There are plenty of more Sheltered routes in Boston Harbor starting from points that allow you to move from sheltered to more open waters so you can adjust depending on skill and conditions . The Malibu beach launch, the Houghs neck public ramp launch, Hingham harbor. City Point near pleasure bay. I would like to get on the water Sunday! Pablo

Great Trip Al, thanks for posting. find attached Picture of google Earth GPS track Regards Pablo

Al Count me in. One of my favorite routes.Especially before the greenheads and boaters are in season. Fox Creek even two hours after high tide is very passable. Finding the entrance from Essex bay is the trick! Pablo

I will bring a Spanish "tortilla de patatas" Pablo

Sign me up for this trip. Looks great. Pablo deTorres CLC Shearwater 17

Looking for recommendations, guidance on some warm water paddling in Mexico/Baja, preferably one catering to experienced paddlers. Thanks Pablo

As a trip participant I can vouch for the great conditions and companionship. Warren and Pru did a great job. The pre-trip materials were just right. It was enough to know what questions to ask and to generate the on-line conversations that would fill in the gaps. Conversations during the trip added much to my camping knowledge. The one night format is just right for a "new to" type trip. it simplifies the planning and reduces the pressure or concern about having everything "perfect". So it won't interfere with the fun. The terrific trip report and following discussion is an extra learning bonus. See you all on the Water Pablo
