I'm planning to launch at SC at 10:30 with a few others and do a level 1.3 paddle. No lunch stop but could have a wave or two. We will cross a channel several times but no boats to worry about. Maybe a seal?
I usually paddle in the cold times for up to two hours and come back and have lunch at the market. If people want to break off for a more lengthily route, or a lunch stop, that's fine.
