We definitely need a Saturday paddle. I was also thinking of going from Pier 5 to Castle Hill, with a little wind forecast out of the northeast, it might not be a brutal return. It might also be nice to paddle across the mouth of the Sakonnet. What do people think?

It is a great shot! I think it was taken in 2008 following a big summer storm. We went out to ride the swells in the outer West Passage. I believe the foredeck and photo credits belong to Nick Fairweather, who now resides in Vancouver, British Columbia. The last I heard, Nick was working his way up the demanding Canadian Instructor ranks.

Unfortunately that spot is marked "Little Compton Town Residents Only." The police are taking that VERY seriously- as in "criminal trespass". Sorry to burst that bubble. Very difficult to access the ocean in that area. Sakonnet harbor and South Shore beach are basically the only choices.

That location is not a public option, and could be a problem for all concerned if it is listed as a launch site. The thread below will explain in detail, and I'm sure the folks at Osprey can tell you more: http://kayaksurfers.com/index.php?option=com_fireboard&Itemid=39&func=view&id=8653&catid=2 |

Hey Mike,
I posted a paddle yesterday and realized it was not on your fabulous list of put ins. It's called by the locals "The Landing" also " Town Landing ". It's good for launching small boats for surfing. It's off Long Pasture Rd. in Little Compton. If you could add it, that would be great. Jon |

Meet at Town Landing, Little Compton at 10:30 A.M.
Bring small surf boats if you have them. If there's no surf we'll go elsewhere. |
