It is time to once more join together as a community and explore the waters that bind us together. Messing about in boats. And this time we'll hope the weather lets us do it!

We'll head east on the end of the flood current and see how far we get. Depending on the mix of paddlers and the weathermaybe we can do a full Roosevelt Island circ.

An intermediate trip, though as long as we have enough experienced stern paddlers, beginners are welcome.

Dress for the water, not the air: NO COTTON clothing. Bring lots of water and maybe a snack.
