Please join us for a day paddling down the west side of Rutherford Island, launching from Shipbuilders Park in East Boothbay. We’ll have lunch on beautiful Thrumcap Island and then bimble our way north through the Thread of Life Islands, returning to the launch site through The Gut in South Bristol. Rock play (bring a helmet) opportunities abound, but this is entirely voluntary. We should be off the water between 3 and 4 PM. PFD and spray skirt are required; please dress for immersion. I will monitor conditions and post an update a couple of days prior to the paddle.
