First Manhattan Circumnavigation Since I Moved My Boat to Canarsie...
And now that I have your attention - ha ha, guess what, too pooped to write it up! 30 miles (26 around plus a couple of miles to and from Red Hook, Brooklyn, where we launched) is a incredibly ambitious paddle this early in the season. Gorgeous day on the water though, if very very tiring. I think this was my favorite photo of the day - we'd just gotten to Battery Park, so we were in the home stretch, which was great; there's the Statue of Liberty in the background, and beyond the Sebago paddlers, there's the schooner America 2.0 having a grand sail.

Great photo and what looks like a fab (if tiring) paddle!
It was a big chunk to bite off this early in the season, especially after a winter that discouraged paddling. But it was a beautiful day out there - I have a lot more pictures to sort through, but this one just jumped out at me as a good one to start with.
PS clicked it out on Google maps. Don't know how accurate Google maps is but Google maps is claiming 32 miles and change. Woof.
awesome, looks lovely!!
It was, couldn't have had much nicer weather.
