Winter Street is as far upriver as I've been. McAdow's guide book "The Concord, Sudbury, and Assabet Rivers" describes paddling that section.<br />I carry my bubble wrapped-camera in a Pelican water-tight box kept tethered on deck.<br />The trash I pickup is kept first under the bungees, then transferred to a (dedicated for trash) drybag kept astern, and if drybag becomes full, another transfer is made to storage compartments below deck. <br />Good gloves are essential!<br />Be careful with these high flow rates.

Do you throw all the stuff in the boat while you're paddling or do you carry it in a bag alongside/behind?<br /><br />Any hints you could provide would be appreciated,<br /><br />JAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
