Good, honest 1-mile morning kayaking on a flat Bay to the dead-tree zone.
Century Club: Bob Ohler
Just simply great canoeing through the Delaware Water Gap w/ DJO, SEO, EGO. My best canoeing w/ the family.
Sailed to K, toasted Bryan, and returned.
#33 Strava reported that this was my longest kayak run recorded. This was another good honest workout in the kayak going to the pier at Camp Roosevelt and back. 2 1/4 miles.
Because of travel & Covid, I had not been on the water in almost a month. I paddled out to the Green Can #1 buoy off Breezy Point. I got caught by surprise when I realized that I was paddling against a strong, ebb tide. Good, honest workout of 2.1 miles.
Last night, Sailing team Barba Roja 73052 got together on the water and on land to celebrate the life of a crew member. Bryan was a great chef, crew member, and friend, and we will always remember him. Bryan, may the wind always be at your back!
Barba Roja had RC and I decided to go out and learn as much as I could about what tge RC does and how it operates.
#29 A much easier paddle tonight compared to last night. I paddled north to the dead-tree zone. Nice, easy run. No wild life spotted with the except of the Osprey sitting on the nest.
#28 No sooner did I launch the kayak than the wind and chop piped up out of the SE. I took it as a challenge and paddled into the weather, paddling south the 1st dock that juts out into the Bay, just south of the Breezy Point property line. It was a good, tough workout of the upper shoulders and arms!
All the crew had something else to do. I single-handed to SMSA V, left 77 to port, sailed to 76, gybed and came back across the Bay. 18 miles, top speed 6.8 knots. This was GREAT sailing!
