The north shore paddlers network is the largest local sea kayaking group, for
coastal NH and Massachusetts.

There's a thread on the nspn message board with links to 4 updates as the
updates became available.

The sequence of events in the articles is interesting in that the coast
guard was called out twice.  The first time they located the paddler
having lunch on the isle of shoals.   The previous information implied
the paddler had filed a float plan ahead of time.  Now it sounds like he
checked back in with the coast guard for his return trip, after having
been located by the first coast guard search.

I had been hoping one of the visitors to nspn.org would be familiar with
the skills and habits of the lost paddler.
