  • What to wear and bring

With the currents being  unfavorable once again,  we will paddle to Bushwick Inlet and practice how to tow, wet exit and recover a decked sea kayak, and how to get back into the cockpit. The water temperature is around 72F and  warm enough to take this dip, but wear fast-drying clothes or protective layers as available (wet suit, etc.).  Nose plugs are a plus, but not a must.   A towel and change of clothes to go home in dry fashion are recommended.

Previous experience in decked kayak is required.  Please bring plenty of drinking water.
