May the Fourth be with you! From Oak Bay Marina we'll paddle towards Discovery via the Chain Islets, then navigate up through the Chatham Islands and around in a clockwise direction, stopping for lunch in Rudlin Bay. After lunch we'll continue to noodle along the shore before crossing Plumper Passage and back to the Marina.
Route plan B
If Plan B is required, the weather forecast will dictate our route and destination, so TBD.
Safety reminders
Always dress for the possibility of immersion and please bring a drybag containing a spare change of clothes. The drybag goes in your kayak with you, not in your car at the launch site. Please bring a lunch or snacks and sufficient beverage to keep you hydrated, as well as a thermos of something warm. Your paddle leader will introduce the plan and make sure everyone is comfortable with the requirements. Please stay off the water until the group is ready. If you have a VHF radio please bring it with you.
