August

August 02 - Cocagne Island
We had six turn out for this11.8km paddle.

August 12 - Cape Enrage
Well, it was anything BUT Enraged.
The weather was perfect and nine turned out for this 13km paddle.
Super Moons cause very high tides and rip-tides. 
Entering the channel into Barn Marsh Creek my GPS recorded speeds of 12 and 13km/h, and we had currents pushing us almost all the way to the road.

August 16 - Shediac River
While it was windy on the exposed Bay, we had a nice 14km paddle up the river.

Aug 20 - Buctouche Dunes - South End
We had seven turn out for this paddle.  Beautiful evening with rogue waves to keep us awake.

Aug 23 - 25 - Campobello Island
We had a great weekend on Campobello Island. It was sunny and warm with very little wind. Six couples enjoyed this adventure. We didn’t see many whales but we did have a close-up encounter with a large shark. We got out for at least five paddles… no problems, no injuries, great experience. I wish we could spend a week here.
