This is a joint flatwater/sea kayak trip. We will put in at Sprague Bridge and do a round trip up through Pettaquamscutt Cove and the Narrows between Middlebridge Road and Bridgetown Road. Those who are interested can paddle down to the beach when we get back to the bridge. High tide is 11:30. Bring a lunch.

Looks like we are going to have a nice day for the trip tomorrow:

Partly sunny, with a high near 66. Light east wind increasing to 5 to 9 mph in the morning. A slight chance of rain after 2pm. Chance of precipitation is 20%.

High tide is 11:35, so hopefully we will paddle up and back with the tide. Current usually isn't an issue, but it can get windy - especially going through the marsh. Tough to know what to wear this time of year. Water is around 67. Air temps in the mid 60's. Change of cloths probably isn't a bad idea.

Bring a lunch, we will stop somewhere around Bridgetown Road.
