  1. WRSI Trident helmet, black, M/L, $120 Never used, still in bag. Fits normal heads, unlike mine. $210 new
  2. I converted my old Thule folding J hooks to mount on aerobars, so have lots of clamps and knobs and bolts left over, if that’s useful. Agree that specing rustable hardware on sea kayak stuff is ignorant. So is using S hooks on bow and stern lines that fall off the car, as I’ve told Thule.
  3. It's going to be hotter than heck Thursday. You should come to the pond.
  4. I haven’t signed up, but was thinking the same.
  5. John, Something was odd with your account. I just generated a renewal invoice, which you should have received by email. If you need more help, write me at treasurer@nspn.org Mike
  6. If you add a reply to a post that something has been sold, we’ll move it.
  7. I’ll be there. State launch is back by the wall. Greenheads are out.
  8. If you'd like to learn more about the currents where we're going:
  9. Version 1.0.0

    15 downloads

    Tides and Currents in Portsmouth Harbor, US Coast and Geodetic Survey, 1929. Includes a set of tidal flow charts on pp. 56-69.
  10. I’ll be there. Hot and sunny right now near the lake. We can work on anything you have in mind.
  11. Looks as if the weather permits, but doesn't encourage. Some rain doesn't stop us. You?
  12. The boat ramp parking lot is north of the main park entrance, just on the south side of the small bridge.
  13. Probably. Wiggle the button while you flush it. Gets the sand out. This will avoid the “button won’t pop up” problem. Salt could make the two halves stick together. If it gets stuck, put the paddle behind your knees and use your legs to help push your hands apart to pull the paddle apart.
  14. Looks ok from the pictures. Wash it well with hot water while wiggling the release button, and don't use any kind of lubricant. If that doesn't help, Werner customer service is quite helpful. Give them a call.
  15. George, we’re there every Thursday. Hope we’ll see you there.
  16. Come join us at Chebacco Lake in Hamilton on Thursdays at 5pm until sunset though the summer. Practice strokes, rolls, rescues, falling out of your boat, or just watching kingfishers. It's a great place for new and developing paddlers to learn and experiment, and for experienced paddlers to tune up. Dress for immersion. A wetsuit is warm enough in early season, and keeps down the bruises from climbing back into your boat ten times a night. We meet at the boat ramp at the south end of the lake, and hang out in the cove to the left of the ramp. You can either get off 128 at Pine st (exit 49) and head north on the dirt road, or find Chebacco road off Rt 22 in Essex and avoid the dirt. No entrance fees.
  17. Won't work on 18 June. And for goodness sake, don't go there during July. You'll give blood...all of it. It's the headquarters of the Essex County Greenhead Association.
  18. I have Icom M93. It has DSC, which is a cross between a bell and a whistle, and therefore is large and hard to fit in a lifejacket. Icom does make simpler good radios. Be sure you get one that floats.
  19. Who needs lightning rods when you have bunny ears?
  20. Ick. Helmets and non-conductive paddles?
