Brad recently purchased an inflatable raft, and we were finally able to spend some time on the Delaware River. He opted for a raft instead of a bass boat, as it will be easier to transport on our visits to Nova Scotia...

Over the weekend, we were able to take the raft out for a test run on the Delaware River. We began at the National Park Service's Kittatinny Point Visitor Center on the NJ side and motored upriver. We only made it to Schellenberger Island, as the weather was set to make a turn for the worse. It was a short trip, but enabled us to work out some kinks with the raft, and showed us that the 3HP electric motor was strong enough to withstand going against the current. Perhaps next trip we can make it to the Hialeah picnic area or Smithfield Beach...Posted by Picasa
