NYCkayaker REMINDER: Boating Safety Event: Paddle Smart in NY Harbor, Thursday May 13 at pier 66

[Nancy Brous]

Just a reminder about this free event.
Hope to see some of you there.


The New York City Water Trail Association and
NYRiverSports/pier66nyc.orginvite you to join us for:



Paddle Smart in the NY Harbor
presented by the North River Power Squadron
(www.NorthRiversquadron.org<http://www.northriversquadron.org/>
)



We won’t be covering any paddling or rowing technique or skills because we
know that excellent sources for that training already exist throughout the
area.  Instead we will be focusing on topics that address how we, as
human-powered boaters, operate as mariners in a shared harbor


As the boating season gets underway, now is the perfect time to learn or
refresh your knowledge of:

   - Aids to Navigation
   - Rules of the Road
   - Marine Radio Use
   - Assessing the weather
   - Nautical Charts
   - How to read the Hudson River

.

Date:  Thursday, May 13

Time:  7:30pm

Locations:  Pier 66 Boathouse classroom (for directions see
www.pier66nyc.org/directions.html)

The event is free and open to the public.
