cover up, next your going to say that Area 51 doesn't exist :vroam:

hey if wahoo buys the boat, i would gladly be one of the three buds to help with the fuel cost.....:rolleyes:

would you help with spooning too?;)

didn't know we have MacGyver on BWE.:the_finger:
well sadly the road between Avalon and boat yard is closed for anybody just cars(falling rocks)should be reopen later this summer.there is another road (wriglies rd),but longer with elevations.:doh:
cab charges are 8 bucks each way(second person is for free,every additional person 1 buck)so with group of 2 and more its doable on budget.

I agree with yakmedic.there is planty cheap ones wouldn't go for hobie.

Here is a link with more information for the MDR ferries. www.catalinaferries.com

it would be nice, but the annual pass is only for NPH to Avalon.

You could always lock the kayak in Two Harbors and then catch the bus from Avalon to Two Harbors where there is a great campsite and direct access to good fishing grounds. Not sure if there is an annual bus pass but I'm sure you can work something out, small community of friendly people.

Thanks Joe been waiting for your respond since you did lot of camping in cat.was thinking why not to paddle all the way to two harbors fish along and spend night or more there and then paddle back to avalon and fish along,or even if you carry tent and sleeping bag you can stay overnight on any primitive camp along the catalina.I think there is a lot of choices ,question is ,is there enough people to do such things?

Certainly you can paddle from Avalon to beach camping. Willow Cove and Long Pt. Beach would be the closest primitive camp spots and are doable in a days paddle. Then working your way to 2 harbors you have Italian Gardens, Goat Harber, Gibraltar Cabrillo, Lava Wall, Paradise, Rippers in order.

You may want to contact Descanso Beach Ocean Sports to see how much they would charge to allow you to lock up your kayak on their rental property. Then you would just get in and go after walking there from the boat.

You could also ask Wet Spot Rentals

Storing at these locations you don't have to worry about cabs or trailers.

no fish at Catalina!

Well unfortunately a large chunk of the primitive camp area stretch is slotted for an MLPA reserve, which is ridiculous given that is where the CAMP SPOTS ARE! So yes there may be NO FISHING THERE, you may want to donate if you are planning on an annual pass

i have been waiting for a 50% off Groupon deal out of MDR, they ran one about this time last Spring and already ran one out of Newport.

Here is a little bit of savings out of MDR for a June trip

Does this get your mind thinking? :cool:

That is very clever marketing, who is going to celebrate their birthday alone! The more the merrier!
