Cold crisp morning for a paddle... Launched from Annapolis and paddled accross Sinclair Inlet, through the Port Washington Narrows, and into Mud bay and back. The tides worked out well for the trip, however had to fight a bit of a breeze coming back.

I always enjoy checking out the waterfront homes, but man there are some ghetto ones in West Bremerton for sure. It's a shame for such because the houses are sitting on some amazing propert!

Two kayak trips in Dyes inlet over the weekend

Trip 1 on Saturday was with Arlyn as I'm shocked I got her out on the water in February. A break from the rain always helps! Calm waters as we paddled from Silverdale Waterfront Park into Chico Bay and back. Unfortunately it did rain on us on the way back, but a good trip is always. Also grabbed some beers afterwards at Cash Brewing, which is always nice.

Trip 2 on Sunday AM was with a couple of co-workers. It was nice sunny everywhere, until we reached Silverdale... There was a thick layer of fog over Dyes inlet which made for a very different paddle. I've never been in a white-out condition paddle before and its shocking how easy it is to get disoriented. Definately a good experience, I should have brought my Necky Kayak though since it has a compass installed.

Trip 1 Total Distance: 5.85 miles

Trip 2 Total Distance: 9.06 miles
