We will meet at Boston Harbor Boat ramp ready for a 6 PM launch. Please arrive allowing enough time to prepare to be on the water by 6 PM. Destination and pace will be adjusted to fit the group and weather conditions at the time of launch. Restrooms and limited parking available at the ramp, a discover pass allows additional parking options.
It's the time of year when the launch is crowded and parking space is limited. Let's try to stay out of the way of the trailered vehicles.
