The heart of our volunteer crew. Whether you are on a kayak, stand up paddleboard (SUP), or canoe, we need YOU to help keep our swimmers safe. As this is a straight 2 mile swim, between the bridges of the Choptank, we want to make sure that we have LOADS of non-motorized water safety.
Swimmers will be able to stop and hand on to your vessel, but you will not be able to provide forward movement. If someone is in need of help, or wants to be removed, you will signal over a motorized vessel, who will take the swimmer. You will NOT be expected to render aid to swimmers.
All Non-Motorized vessel occupants MUST wear a Personal Flotation Device (PFD). Your safety is just as important as those of the swimmers.
