something you don't see every morning. Escorted by Coast Guard thru the canal. Asked them where they were going and they said Maine, I said your nuts and they said yeah but we left Key West in March. Said they are from Little Compton. Wow.

I read about these guys back in Jan on Aquidneck.

Good for them, benefitting the Wounded Warrior project.

They also had the CG Aux ferry them through the canal, I guess that's the boat in the lead

one smallish boat in front one in back.

These people are nuts.....

That back guy ought to hurry up. It would suck to paddle from Key West to Maine and come in second.

I saw them too Paul .. saw CG boat go by ,, then came back with those guys .. Cool rigs ,, wonder if you can sit down ? must be tiring standing from Key West to Maine .

That is a good charity to support :btu:

Stranger things come from Key West........

Yeah, its Keith the Baker;s friends. I thought I heard him wrong when he was tellin me about them the other day. That is an insane accomplishment. Beats hiking the Appalachian trail for sure.

the first 2 boats where Coast Guard, and the one in the back was a fishing boat, but it came back west bound, also you caught me in the back ground on one of your pics!

Getting the permit from the Coast Guard to paddle through the canal was “next to impossible,” said Mimi. “It was huge government red tape,” she said.


Nice at least they got the permit

Good guys. Will is from LC and Mike is from Colorado. My work actually hooked them up with most of the gear.. Our very own Timmah made the big JD stickers for their boards :grins:

Looks to me like they're coming to Maine from your neck of the woods LOL. Ist good wind and a couple big waves they come back to you . All bull aside it is a good thing their doing.

We also saw those guys. I also saw a Ditch Troll and attempted to say hi. Miserable bast@rd just glared at me. From now on I'll only say hi to people I know.

Any buddy see the piping or logs that got towed through on sunday morning?

:wave:

Skippy, it wasn't you. You would have said hi back.

Yeah I saw that pipe thing what the heck was that for?

Saw that pipe as well. I didn't even see it and was ready to cast right over it. :smash:

Wow, those guys are insane. I saw this type of boating on the Charles once before. I wouldn't have paddled and stood on it through the canal.

Guys in Hawaii do it on 20 foot waves and ride the wave down the face

Ya, they want to survive the trip not die from some nasty disease or bacteria from any of the 10,000 seals there they'd have to paddle by:wall:
