Welcome to the group ! Please sign up for some paddles and become active. Let us know if we can help.

PLEASE REALIZE THAT YOU WILL NEED YOUR OWN KAYAK FOR OUR PADDLES. (we offer "loaner sea kayaks" for a small transportation and cleaning fee.) PLEASE REMEMBER that this is a SEA KAYAK CLUB (a sea kayak is at least 14' long, has a skeg or rudder, and has flotation fore and aft). You will need a SEA KAYAK for most of our paddles ( with the exception of the mid-week Wednesday evening casual paddles, but those with rec boats may have trouble keeping up with the group). Members are glad to help you select a sea kayak. Please contact us in person at meetups or via email/Facebook/ etc.

If you have NOT taken a sea kayaking course, we STRONGLY recommend instruction by Rick Wiebush and http://www.crosscurrentsseakayaking.com/ (NOT for total beginners). He periodically offers courses here and on this website.

Also, your local REI offers excellent new kayaker rentals/training/experiences.

Chesapeake Paddlers Association offers instructional courses like SK101 and Sk102.
