[hr]I just learned that I have access to a kayak. If anyone is heading out to find or do a maintenance run on one of the "boat required" or "boat recommended" caches in the area and would like company let me know because I would go along.

I might take you up on that. Treasure Islands usually doesn't survive the winter well and Gizmo Guy rescues it for me.

Yes I noted that someone found it in a bit of distress not too long ago.

The watercraft is still in winter mode at the moment, even though today would have been a great day to be out!

I'll have to check on our island caches as soon as I can get on the water this season between too many other time consuming obligations.

I don't work Friday's (and occasional other days) I'm off at 6PM and have a kayak. I am always up for a paddle. I need the woodtick and north cape caches.

Dual kayaks sound like a good idea. If you all plan to do some island caches, I may tag along to provide emergency transportation support.

I need those too. My schedule can be some what flexible. With a few days notice I can get most Fridays off too. If we drag Gizmo along that would be great. It is always good to have a tow boat too! :lol:

Myself and I'm sure Schwnman99 would be able to provide some transportation.

Where did you come from KG? I am beginning to think that you're avoiding me...leaving parties before I get there an all. You missed the demise of schwnman!

Back on topic: We have 2 kayaks... :)

The demise of Schwnman that night was inevitable. The bottle of golden color mexican liquid was a sure sign. We'll make sure that stays home if a boat trip is order. Anyways, we had a prior engagement but it's early in the summer and we'll catch you next time.

I think this could become a little NWOGEO armada!

We may want to give the Woodtick/North Cape cache owners a heads up however, since the "multi" was in dire need of maintenance last year.

This could be the first annual blessing of the fleet for the Redneck Yacht Club!

I will e-mail the owner of Woodtick (the multi) and see what I can find out.
I am an amazed cacher!

Wow, I have not been on here in a while, and look who pops up! KGJET! And he is offering rides on my boat. Sounds like a great outing, I may have to help plan this one. KGJET, are you getting back into caching or what?
