About this event

I am writing this at Ivarius airports, so this description is a bit sketchy, and not illustrated.  Apologies.  I will provide more info when I get back.  Hopefully the following will give you enough of an idea.

This trip involves launching from The Public Boat Ramp at Palacios, crossing Palacios bay at a reasonably narrow point, and then following the coast southwest to Coon Island Bay and an interesting tidal channel, which we can explore.  The islands lining the Coon Island Bay are nice to stop on.  There may be lots of birds.
