I am preparing for a repeat of my 2013 SF Bay kayak trip around Alameda. In 2013 I paddled my Perception "Sparky" kayak on the 'round Island route accompanied by Keith McCoy of Alameda and his brother.

Our journey, as marked below, took a little more than 5 hours.
Yesterday's (Sunday) training session, still in "Sparky", launched on the Oakland side of the High Street Bridge and went into San Leandro Bay against an ebb tide.

I plan to make the trip on favorable tides during the last week February or second week of March. Several dates will be identified in case of weather delays.
