Hunters Point Paddle
Feb 2 2000
Doug Wilkins and I launched from the Bay View Boat Club ramp at 1:30pm |
On the wall next to the ramp was a beautiful tile mural There was a sign that read "beware of rats" and later I saw a small brown rat right next to this sign. |
We paddled South past the hospital ship MERCY in beautiful, glassy, warm conditions. |
Onward we paddled past a sleeping sea lion. We found a small pocket beach right next to what looked like the SF police driving training course and MUNI bus storage yard. |
A lot of old derelict buildings in a colorful combination of steel and rust. |
We paddled back and saw the sunset reflected under a pier. |
