Be careful out there paddlers. Always dress for the water temp and wear your lifejacket!

"Spring might have finally arrived in Maine, but inland and coastal waters are still dangerously frigid.

On a single day in May, the state saw two paddling deaths, one a sea kayaker near Deer Isle and the other a paddleboarder on Graham Lake in Ellsworth. Lindsey Chasteen, a spokesperson for the state medical examiner’s office, said cold water could have been a factor, but she was unable to definitely say whether the temperature had an impact in those cases. Officials said they believe neither person was wearing a life jacket."
