Cape Codders...

[andygere]

This is becoming an annual plea to my fellow Zoners.  I'll  be on Cape for a  few weeks in August (14-30) for vacation at my folks' place in Eastham, but won't be able to travel with any of my SUP boards.  I've got some traditional longboards there, but would love to get out on a SUP in that clear cold water.  If any of you have a spare board and are willing to meet me for a surf session or two (or flatwater paddle as conditions dictate), I'd be eternally grateful, and would be happy to return the favor here on the West Coast.  If you have a spare board, beater, old Soft top, Costco model, whatever that you would be willing to loan, that would be awesome as well.  I will have a Jeep with south Nauset Oversand permit, and would be happy to work out some beach trips, etc.

Thanks,
Andy Gere

If you want to drive to RHody one day, i have a Bark 12'6, and a 18'6. Be happy to do a ocean or bay paddle with you, I have plenty of spare paddles, one is an adj Werner carve.

Mike,
Thanks for the offer, I may take you up on it.  I'll be in CT (New Haven area) the week before.  Let's connect off line so I can get in touch.

We can definitely hook up Andy...and I pulled the trigger on a new board so the 9-8 should be available again. No spare paddles though.

[andygere]

Bob,
One way or another I can scrounge a paddle, even if I have to build one and ship it east.  What board did you buy?

[stoneaxe]

I figured you would manage....

South County 9'er. Should be here early next week...can't wait for the next swell.

Andy:

How about a 10' inflatable ULI, the Steamroller model?  I'm in the Narragansett/Wakefield section of RI, just a hop skip off of 95 on your way up.  You can borrow the whole kitnkaboodle for the duration of your stay.  Drop me a PM if you want to do it.

Andy-

I live in Cape Ann, but I'd love to take a day trip down to Cape Cod with Bob/Stoneaxe, and I have a Blair 8'11" you could use or a PSH 9'6" WAA. I also have some extra 79" paddles. I love supsurfing on Cape Cod.

The members of this forum are terrific, and I really to appreciate the generous offers.  I'll be in touch via PM to work out details.  Thanks again, this a great tribe.

Trouble for me is that when I talk about "going home" the Cape is the place.  Look forward to doing some paddling with as many of you as possible this summer...

You doing the "Oldtimers" again this year Andy? Too bad Bill cancelled it last year.

I think a "zoners" day on the Cape is called for...

[andygere]

I plan my vacation around Old Timers...zoner's day on the Cape sounds like a good plan.

[outcast]

Why not make it Aug 21?
Saturday ....  Probably the day before Old Timers
A week after CCBC
Low tide = 5pm ....cries for a sunset sesh or dawn patrol or both

If the plovers ever fletch, I'll be on the outer beach.....
