My new friends Dan & Bethany Cox are paddling all the way from Maine to Key West along the Eastern Seaboard. You can keep track of thier journey at dbkayak.com/ . I met them originally through my brother and helped them on some logistics for their stretch through MA. I was lucky enough to get a day off today to spend some time on the water with them and we paddled from Salem Harbor to Nahant, MA (In the MA Bay) which suprisingly only took us about 4 hours with the wind and waves at our back.

Here's Dan Packing up his boat for the day's paddle

Check out this place in Marblehead Harbor, not bad


Time for a pit (aka pee) stop
