Canoe livery suggestions?
I will have a houseload of kids/young adults on the 4th, any suggestions which canoe livery I should use to entertain the invading hoards?
Any suggestions welcome.Jim @ kitchenknifefora.com

Kitatinny is one of the more well-known, and they were very helpful when I called last year about having a bunch of friends, but there's another whose name escapes me at the moment. No matter who you decide on, how bad can it be? It's a canoe. Either it'll float, or it don't. ;-)

Re: Canoe livery suggestions?
landers....Just tell them they MUST wear the life vest. the river is all calm on the top. A lot of jagged boulders below with a lot of whirlpool effect. The current has pulled folks under in spots regardless of the vest. they get wedged under the rocks and drown.

I have heard some stories of being kept waiting at the landing for hours for the livery to pick you up and other customer service type issue and was looking for some feedback on the experience in general of the liveries.
Thanks for the suggestions, I will check out Landers Jim.
Thanks again.Jim @ kitchenknifefora.com

Lander's has the upper Delaware covered to Barryville and Kittatiny has the lower covered south of Barryville. If you're going on the 4th you will have a massive amount of traffic on the water and the levels will be low unless there is a lot of rain a few days before hand. So, expect delays, expect idiots, expect not great conditions, expect congestion. I've never used these liveries, but have made the mistake of going out on the fourth a couple of times and had to deal with the crowd and you might want to rethink it-tourist mania.
