Saturday Morning at Gayundah Wrecks

I will be launching the yak on saturday morning down by the Gayundah wrecks at 6:00 a.m. This spot is a bit tricky as you will need a trolley to get down the hill (or just pull it like i do). I really enjoy paddling around the point though because you do then pass by the Gayundah wreck and on many occasions I have seen the dolphins around this area! For those not keen to launch here, I will be around the point near the Woody Point jetty around 6:15 which is the dead high tide. So hopefully the ebb tide will be good for us and bring some calm water before going out again. I will probably head to the bridge and back, unless conditions are so good that I continue up the inlet. If not, I'm thinking the next paddle will be just up the inlet, which is a beautiful place to explore! Hope to see you this Saturday!!!

Paddle still on for this Morning...

Just had a look at the conditions in the bay and the Woody Point/Clontarf side is looking good. So we will stick with the plan of meeting at 7:00 a.m. near the boat launch at Woody Point. Hope to see you there!

Summer has Arrived so Dust the Kayaks Off

Along with this fantastic weather we have been having that is great kayak weather, along come the storms as well. I was planning for a Saturday morning kayak but I am now hesitant with the weekend forecast. Just have to play it by ear and hopefully the bay isn't too rough. I am planning for 7a.m. at the boat launch closest to the Woody Point Jetty. There is an early morning low tide as well. Will update tomorrow to confirm for sure as weather is not looking good but we can only hope it clears up to have a great morning paddle! Hope to see you there!
