Your enthusiasm is infectious Mike! Hell, I'm a "traditionalist" paddle to the bone, but I see the stoke that these craft bring, peddle or paddle, and I don't care much about the "dark side" stuff anymore.

I have a vague image of the future, and it probably has peddles.

Congrats of the new ride, now git out & get some @ the Barn! (be sure to christen the new yak with a beverage of your choice-it helps! :smt044)

Hey Sledge, sounds like your new ride went through a trial by fire at RBC!
As far as my sailing rig goes, I have no stabilizers or outriggers, seems more fun without them. :smt005
I'll want to check out the shiny new Sledgecraft at Tiki.

Can't wait to have the money to come to the dark side with you.  Jedmo was just cruising along in the wind and swell like no big deal.  Mean while my shoulders almost fell off at the Barn.  Can't wait to be holding position and working the iron from one.  Think I'll  go with the Islander and get the full package.
