Update- the second kayak is taken, but there is room for another person to join me in my kayak if someone doesn’t mind, or would like to ride with me.

I will have two inflatable kayaks with me, one available to borrow. There are paddles for each kayak, but no floatation/life vests. DM me if interested in borrowing or want more info. -Russ
