Registration

There are often seals on Swinburne Island (NY Harbor, about a mile past VZ Bridge) and that is why we must gawk at them.

To make it interesting, we are going to launch from a tbd location near Jamaica Bay (Sebago CC or Floyd Bennett Field are options).

We will load the trailer (or cartop, depending on numbers) at the boatyard, drive (should be plenty of room in the van) to launch and return the same way.

Obviously, drysuits are required.  First come first served for club suits.

Trip Leader:  Dewey Thompson

This is a ROUGH plan, to be confirmed when I nail down launch and check weather:

Meet at boatyard: 11:30a

Drive from boatyard: Noon

Arrive at launch: 1p

In water: 1:30p

Return to launch by: 4:30p

Return to boatyard: 6pm (unless we stop for clams)
