Re: Raritan Bay kayaking this Spring...
One thing i would like to add put a high flyer bright orange flag maybe 6ft above your head not always idiots driving the big boats who are at fault. Granted your weekend warriors will run you down in a heart beat but even us guys that know and respect yhe water cant see a baby blue colored kayak with say a sun glare. Bay is easier to see however i was with my uncle a few time beating it back north in the ocean and sure as s%#t come over the top of a wave and look down at a kayak Lucky we were goin slow b.c of conditions but if we were in ahurry it would made front page of the paper all we needed to see was a flag and coulda veered away. Safty first!
