The equipment meets the safety standards and regulations set by the Maine Dept. of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife. Outfitters provide life jackets. A major medical kit accompanies each trip. If you are concerned about your physical ability to take a trip, consult your physician. Use of drugs and alcohol prior to or during the trip is forbidden.
Outfitters reserve the right to refuse trip participation.
Outfitters provide transportation to and from their base facility to the rivers, life preservers, helmets and paddles, a pre-trip orientation and safety meeting, a ride down the river and a hearty, open grill meal. Raft trips go rain or shine. Most rafters will get splashed and wet even on the driest days. Wear plenty of sunscreen on bright days as the sun's rays are much stronger reflecting off the water. Maine rafting trips are full day adventures.
