KAYAK: Int. - To Williamsburg Bridge with a Stop for a Wet Exit!

We'll take decked kayaks (with spray skirts) and paddle towards the Williamsburg Bridge with the ebb, tuck into Bushwick Inlet to try a wet exit and/or practice a rescue, and then continue on to the bridge, in the glow of the sunset, then turn around and head back after slack.

This is a great paddle for anyone who hasn't done a wet exit in a decked kayak and would like the experience.  A nose plug recommended, and a change of clothes for when you get back to the boat yard.
