New Kayak on the Ways

There should be video by Friday night. Hopefully the christening and launch go better than Judge Smail's.

I've been looking forward to today, I put a sealer coat of epoxy on the deck. Yep, the maple she poppin'.

Looks great. If you put it in Squam, I would to see it.

Congratulations! Boat and paddler look to be very well suited to each other.

Beautiful boat! Love the red decking that also goes with the red paddle. Sorry I wasn't able to make it this weekend, weather was great. Had my own paddle trip up in the ADK. Paddled Raquette River to lower falls and back, next day Stoney Creek to Indian Carry and back. Weather was crazy, every 10 min it was either sunny, rainny, hail, wind.

Post a trip report and get your man cave weekend priorities straight, homes.

Great vid, almost thought I was looking at Puget Sound again! (Not enough geoducks on the beach, though.)

The soundtrack included a cinematic reference that sounded familiar ........
