  3. I'm in. Hope the weather and a trip can come to agreement Dwman53 (the other doug)
  4. Made a trip from the new Fort Point Kayak launch and headed thru the locks then to Esplanade and then back out to USS Constitution. A nice easy way to get to the harbor ( parking $5.00 all day on weekends) Now... want to head the other direction Can you stop at Castle and get out to look around the fort? Does anyone know if you can stop on Long or Spectacle Islands? Is there a better Route, or better Islands to paddle to/by? Doug (the other Doug)
  5. Bob, I'm in... Doug W Impex Susquehanna
  6. Looking to launch from Seabrook /Hampton Harbor around 2:00-2:30 and heading out along the beaches Weather says Sunny 70F with light winds and seas 2-4ft Ocean temp 49F High tide @ 5:46 PM Doug W
  7. Thanks for the info. Went early and got a spot in the main parking lot. This was my first race, but managed 13th in Masters class and 35th overall. The down wind leg was fast thanks to the wind, but you know you gunna pay when you turned and headed for home. 6 Miles 1hr 21 m 39 sec Next up is Essex River race @ the end of May DougW
  8. Anyone racing in the 6 mile sea kayak race on Sunday? Anyone have any good insight into a parking location, if DCR Artesani Park area, Brighton (start of 6 mile race) is full? I know about Magazine beach, but it's kinda far away and heard there's a 4 hr parking time limit I'm paddling an IMPEX Susquehanna Yellow/white...coming thru... Thanks Doug W
  9. Ran across an article about the latest radio features http://www.paddling.net/guidelines/showArticle.html?609

  11. :yippie:I'm planning on joining in Doug W
  12. It was a fantastic way to spend a bonus day of summer weather. Seeing the shoreline from a kayakers perspective just gets better and better Appreciate the opportunity to join in Thanks to Doug for organizing the trip DougW
  13. Great trip..the opportunity to observe "rock play" and "follow the leader" were beneficial experiences. Even took on surfing.. apologies again go to Blaine, who was the recipent of my first surfing collision. I'm now rushing out to get a helmet the pics, as always, are great Doug W
  14. I've upgraded from rec to fiberglass over the last three years. Agree that Craigslist is the second spot to check out, but The first thing is is to try boats out. Consider Charles River Kayak, in Newton MA and/ or ContoocooK River Kayak up in NH. They both have a large selection and you can test drive them free, on site.
  15. I'd like to join the trip Doug (the other Doug)
  16. Thanks for the info, looks like I'm going to spend some time @ West Marine to check out all of your suggestions Doug W
