Registration is closed

We'll meet at MASE to pick up a canoe and paddle to the kayaks. Then do the reverse to get back.

Let's practice some strokes inside of a sea kayak with or without a spray skirt. Get ready to have fun,  enjoy the water, and hang out right in front of the breathtaking NYC skyline.

This is intended for beginners - by which we mean those who have never kayaked, those working on skills towards intermediate and those who may have skills but haven't yet paddled with us and gotten assessed.

Dress to get wet, bring water, a snack, etc. Avoid jeans or other heavy cotton clothing.
