Ennis, Have you been to Washington DC lately? They have a really cool kayak and canoe thing going on in the Potomac, about 1 mile upstream from the Kennedy Center. Was there 2-3 summers ago and had a blast.

Problem here with that sort of thing is the current. It could easily carry an inexperienced paddler away. You would need someone in a jet ski to patrol for safety.

You are 100% right about that.  Not to mention the very dangerous eddies in the deeper water.
