All 3 week trips are now "in the field"




Yesterday afternoon we said "bon voyage" to our Mariners program as they rowed away from the waterfront.  As they made way from the docks it was apparent that they will quickly learn to not only sail the boats when the wind cooperates, but also row them during calmer times.  By now they are enjoying a well deserved day of sunshine and some light Northeasterly winds.

The Maine Coast Kayak group shoved off mid-morning today under bright blue skies and gentle breezes.  They all successfully completed their rescue techniques practice and basic paddling skills and are now ready for a 3 great weeks of paddling.  Here are a few pictures taken by one of our staff member of their launch.
