I’ve recently returned to the sport of kayaking with a Feathercraft folding kayak. New York City has a extensive network of water trails, so there really is no need to practice the art of commando kayaking. On the other hand, I still retain a lot of that anti-authoritative mischievousness from my younger days and have no qualms with hopping over a fence or two with my backpack-able kayak, in order to access some pristine waterscape. As the waters around NYC slowly recover from their heavily polluted and dredged past, certain populations have exploded, becoming pests rather than points of pride. Unmanicured impromptu boat launches are often peppered with these shellfish which can cut right through the skin of my kayak like a thousand little serrated blades.
