Level 2-3 meet at Weaver Cove 9:30 for 10 am launch. Paddle up west shore of Prudence Island possibly to Patience Is.

Not to compete with Sat. trip but I am in Vermont thru Sat. so posting this Sunday trip.

Southern part of Prudence is conservation land so the western shore is uninhabited. Wild & scenic. A joy to explore!

Looks to be a pretty mild day.  South wind 3-5 kts in the morning going up to 7-8 kts in the afternoon.  Low tide is around 8:45 am, high tide around 4:30 pm.  It's a neap tide (moon is in last quarter) and the range is only from .1 feet at low to 3.3 feet at high, so the tidal flow is pretty benign.

Total round trip Weaver to stone jetty is about 14 miles but it's an out and back trip so distance can be shortened depending on conditions and the group's preferences.
