Can kayaks save America? Luckily, I just bought one a few weeks ago and may have beat the rush. Advise those new to kayaking to not put cigarettes in pocket before first attempt. I realized this very quickly.

Port Authority boat patrols around Kennedy and La Guardia airports were canceled last year to save money, although some patrols resumed last month after a boat crashed into runway approach lights at LaGuardia when its captain abandoned the helm to participate in a three-way sex romp, sources said.

wow

Port Authority boats don’t patrol the bay at night

It's dark - they couldn't see anything anyway.

Have there been a rash of kayak accidents, to accompany the rash of boating accidents?

Regarding JFK security, I recall biking to Idlewild airport (JFK's original airport name) - well, perhaps it was JFK at the time - anyways, we were under the runway, where it had an overpass. Would climb up to the runway. I recall setting up a movie camera to get REALLY CLOSE closups of landing aircraft.

OtterBox 1000... perfect size for a pack of smokes. Though, if you smoke menthols you got bigger problems than wet smokes and very well may be better off keeping them in a shirt pocket when kayaking with your 2 buddies... with one paddle... after overturning your 3 man kayak.

Sounds funny.

I’ve been kayaking for several years but just started running rivers with more whitewater. Never got dumped before this year. Now, I spend more time in the water than on it. Kinda fun.
