LAUNCH TIME 10 AM FROM FRESHWATER BAY PARK/BOAT LAUNCH
Meet at Freshwater Bay state park at whatever time you need to arrive to be ready to launch at 10 am.
Participants must have some level of experience in dynamic water but I am willing to be generous in that interpretation! Send me a note if you are uncertain and we can talk about it.
We will run a shuttle for a start at FWB and an end at Crescent Bay. Expect to be on the water from 10 to about 3-4.
