Trip leader Al Tillson alberttillson12@gmail.com 813-7313583
Description: We’ll paddle for about 2 hours either up the Anclote River or along the coast as determined by conditions and group interest.
Location: Anclote River Park. Park in the usual lot past the power boat launch area and the beach. Riverside launch is about 50 yards away.
Schedule: Thursday January 1st . Meet at 10AM for a 10:30 launch. We’ll be back around noon to meet the other group for lunch at the picnic shelter or in the surrounding area.
Additional information: Restroom near the parking lot. The picnic shelter cannot be reserved, so you may want to bring a chair or blanket in case we can’t get space in the pavilion.
Difficulty: Rec/Level 1. About 2 hours and 3 – 5 miles.
Required / suggested / restricted: Be sure to bring plenty of water, lunch/snack, sunscreen, insect repellent, and footwear that will protect you against possible oyster shells at take outs. The water temperatures have dropped, so it’s important to DRESS FOR POSSIBLE IMMERSION: avoid cotton clothing and include a waterproof outer shell. All boats should be at least 10 feet long and have sealed flotation and bow and stern grab loops and/or deck lines. Sit-on-tops are welcome.
