Perhaps we can also use it to do some Fund Raising and raise awarness for Heros on the Water.

This sounds like a great idea! I would definitely be up for assisting you in organizing/managing. I'm sure we can rope in a few of the HOW-NJ folks to help as well.
By the way, for those who don't know, Heroes on the Water takes vets out kayak fishing. You all know how zen like fishing can be. That, combined with the physical aspects of kayaking, has proven to be instrumental in helping our heroes to rehabilitate. Several folks from this board are volunteers for HOW-NJ. You can check us out on Facebook (the address is in my signature) if you would like to volunteer. Also, if you know a vet who might benefit by an outing with us, then tell them to reach out to us as well. We'll make sure they have a nice day on the water where they can relax and rehabilitate.
