Another trip could be to paddle from the Narrow River to Matunuck. This is a very exposed area with the possibilities of large waves. Another possible location could be out to Race Point on the western end Fishers Island. This is where The Race begins. We can poke out into The Race to paddle in strong currents.
Most local paddlers have little experience paddling in strong currents.
This area has over 5 knot currents and a large amount of water is funneled through The Race. We chose this area because of its open water and rough conditions. Helmets will be available. We still consider this program higher risk. Both equipment and the paddler can take a beating.
