The Delaware River is one of the last major free-flowing rivers left in the contiguous 48 states. Being free of dams on the main stem means this river is a haven for wildlife and outdoor enthusiasts alike. Credit: DWG National RA

Wear a PFD at all times. The pros always do, you can spot the newbie by the one that lacks the PFD.

Excited to be picking up the Old Town Loon 120 this weekend. I have a SOT so this will be a great addition. What do you paddle?

We are an official member of the American Canoe Association. What does that mean? We paid them for a yearly membership lol. Ok and access to some resources for safe paddling. We have an ACA instructor who will be doing classes this summer.

Hydroskin or Drysuit?
Hello community!
I don't do a lot of colder/frostbite boating, but I do it a little bit; here are the particulars:
- Paddling on really shallow (like no more than about 6' -- 9' deep) on protected waters (lakes, not rivers)
- I will also be taking delivery of small sailboat -- in Maine -- around the end of April and I will need to take it out for sea trails. The sea trials will be conducted on a bay (as opposed to the open ocean) and there will most likely be a chase boat.
Considering the above, what do you all recommend: Hydroskin or Drysuit?
Thanks in advance!

About Us
A little background I founded NJPaddle.org follow us on Instagram @NJPaddle or find us on Facebook. I also just made /r/NewJerseyPaddle/.
I put out resources all the time, so I’ll keep the Reddit updated as well. We work with a number of NPOs like the Hackensack Riverkeeper and CU Maurice River. We are also an affiliate member of the American Canoe Club (ACA). We hold a number of paddle meets and plan to have some educational classes this year.
