There is a local paddling club (based in New Jersey) called the Paddling Bares. Quite active. They generally have a club booth at Jeresy Paddler Paddlesport shows rquipped with poster board photo displays. You can't miss their booth...just follow the crowd. I think they mostly do canoeing on NJ back waters such as the Pine Barrens. Canoeists, as you know, tend not to wear PFDs as much as do kayakers. ralph diaz *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
