Canoeists -- paddlers -- 4 of them were also swimmers

The plan was to drive to Port Jervis -- drop off Flipper's MG and continue to Narrowsburg, NY and leave the pickup truck there. We would paddle down the Delaware to Port Jervis and then Flipper and Bob would drive back to get the truck and we would all drive home.
