Re: Row down the Duwamish?

At least 20 miles. Paddling-wise, anyway, but I don't remember terribly narrow spots, so you should be fine in a shell. There is one problematic spot about 5 mi up the river, give or take a mile or two - at low tide it is a class 2 rapid, a non-issue at high tide. It is not the most scenic paddle, though, blackberry covered levees on both sides, gets pretty repetitive after a few miles. From: tkreyche@... To: SoundRowers@...

One of these fall weekends I'd plan to organize an informal row down to Salty's on Alki or so, and a car shuffle.
Yes I know there is the Duwamish Rowing Club in South Park but I'm not sure I trust their judgement since their web site says "Rowing is meant to take place on calm water."
