[Paddlewise] paddling the potomac river

Hi

I am planning to paddle the Potomac around DC sometime soon.

What type of currents am I likely to encounter?

Can you put into the river around Roosevelt Island or does one need to find an
"official site"?

How far up from Key bridge is it reasonable to paddle. I know little falls
represents the start of "smooth water".

thanks
sid
