Hi Gordin, A few years ago I paddled from Kingston to Ivy Lea (+/- 50km), a little summary of which you can read here: http://jpivovar.net/Gallery/STL05main.htm There is a 1000 Islands water trail with good on-line documentation, including links to local outfitters in Gan, here: http://www.paddle1000.com/index.htm The route descriptions of "hazards" might clue you in on where you want to head. There's not lots of current around Gan, just barely noticeable. If you go east of Ivy Lea the current picks up a bit in the narrows and there is at least one low-head dam that provides a few challenges. Stay away from the US side around Gan as that is the main shipping channel along there and it is only annoying. Have fun!
