  1. Al OK lets do 10;30 AM Thursday launch from Winthrop End of Road, Airport Side (Beach Briefing 10:25 AM) Route like a 9 mile route http://www.gmap-pedo....com/?r=5973877 See you then. I will send you my cell phone in a private message. You may want to re-post with new plan and date. Pablo
  2. Al A short one out of winthrop sounds OK. prefer later morning start say 10, so I can avoid the rush hour traffic through Boston. Perhaps winthrop to Georges and back is a good distance. Regards Pablo

  4. Al perhaps we can go up and down the Neponset just to get in some paddling Pablo
  5. Al I am interested in a Boston harbor paddle Wednesday Coming from Quincy. Depending on where you are coming from Would launch from city point or malibu beach be OK.?less exposure if winds ramp up Pablo Millenium Red over white
  6. Hi Al Maritime center is a kind name for the Quincy police maritime unit building and public boat ramp on Bay View Road adjacent to the Quincy yacht club 137 Bayview Road Quincy, MA 02169 . there is a concrete ramp, about 8 parking spaces next to it and a large paved lot 20 yards away with plenty of room to include boat trailers. I checked with the police unit and the large lot has no resident restrictions and is open for overnight parking. A good place if you are camping on the Islands. It sometimes has a working outdoor shower. there is a concrete ramp but a small gravelly/sand area to the left side if you prefer to launch from that surface. It's busy on summer weekends but not impossible. Occasionally in the summer weekends a lobster boat will tie up at the adjacent dock and sell live lobsters Regards Pablo

  11. Both branches in the Westport are nice. The East gives you more distance. Both put-ins are near wineries. Both routes are well described with maps and directions in Lisa Gollin Evans' AMC book "Sea kayaking Coastal Massachusetts" pagees 303-313 Pablo
