Don't laugh! When I did my OW tests a few year's back we were scheduled to do them in the ocean but got blown out so we did them at Clark's Point.
I swear the "seas" at Clark's were 1 1/2' with a...

19 mile bay

At 19 Mile Bay between the public beach and the docks, along the shore next to the highway. Lots of big weeds and fish hiding out. [but don't tell the fisherfolk.]

Another bad weekend for the ocean

It didn't sound like it was going to be a very pleasant day at the ocean today so so I went to Centre Harbor docks after the rain stopped. The air was 36* and the water was 36*. Ice shelf has backed...

Lousy weekend for the ocean

It sounds like this might be another crappy weekend at the ocean. I'm thinking I'll go back to Centre Harbor before the ice is all gone and the boats start tying up at the docks again. I'll just be...

Too many cars

I looked at the cam at 10 this morning and the p-lot was already full. I went instead to Great Island Commons, Newcastle to test out some gear and undergarments/thermal. Maybe I'll get back to...

Plan B

Yes, I got Mike's email that the 2nd annual was cancelled. I am still thinking of going back to Ctr. Harbor on Saturday if the ramp isn't iced up, but when I think about it, I probably won't be able...

Docks are icing up

I had to go to Laconia to take my mother-in-law home yesterday, so I went to the Centre Harbor docks late morning. The ramp area has a skin over it so it is starting to freeze up there also. I think...

I did a little research and found out that this can definately be a hazard. Land-based electrical appliances are covered by building codes that say the circuits must have GFIC: but not so for boats....

I went to the town docks today and had a really good "dive." But I don't know if I really want to log it in the book as a dive. I never got over 12' deep. That's where the ice line was. I spent a...

I wouldn't call what I want to do diving.

It's more like playing in the water, though I think there might be a touch of treasure hunting under the docks to keep it interesting. I think I'll try...

Center Harbor Town Docks

I tried Wolfeboro Town Docks today but the shore was too iced up. I should have brought a ladder for the end of the dock! Any law against this? Maybe next weekend.

So anyway, I drove around the...
