NYCkayaker Watertrail Guide Question....

[sandy sobanski]

Well....There you go. once again---The paddling God has spoken....  I can just see it now, a NY meeting- to decide whether to put NJ on the map !  Ha!   Well maybe Tim will include us...But you never can tell...  I think I'll start spray painting that double yellow line down the middle of the river now...
The work never ends...  Sandy

 I agree with Sandy and more some.   Not only is it  important for safety to have all decent launch/land  sites on the map.  It is also important politically.   This is  particularly true for the development of the Jersey side.  I don't  remember precisely how many NJ municipalities are lined up across from  the full length of  Manhattan.  It must be at least a half  dozen.  If you have paddling sites in one or two, you can put pressure on  the others if there is an available space for such sites and there  are.   Plus paddling on the Jersey side may have a longer tradition  than it does on the Manhattan side.
  
 Thanks, Sandy, for reminding the group  of NJ.
