Kayak, Intermediate: Bushwick Inlet - Join the waitlist. Once we can check your paddle skill level and if there's room you'll be registered.

This is perfect if you’d like to learn or practice your towing skills! We’ll paddle to Bushwick Inlet towing sit-on-top kayaks for the public paddle, and then tow them back afterward.

Requirements: You just need to be a strong intermediate kayaker who is comfortable paddling in the East River. No previous towing experience is necessary.

Beforehand, we can go over a short slide presentation on towing, so we’ll have a chance to review the basics before we head out.

If you’re on the waitlist, you’ll receive an email a couple of days beforehand if you’ve been moved to the registered list.
