Hey There,

I'm just sticking my toes in the water a bit and checking things out. No kayak yet and still may opt for a skiff of some sort. I'm not sure, just thinking. Looking at range, sea worthiness, practicality and such, but probably won't have any real idea of that without actually getting one and putting the time in. The actual challenge of making it work is enticing to me. The first time I saw one I thought it would be awesome for remote launches.

Thanks,
Ian

Thanks for the welcoming from all. Here's a couple old scans of me, no cool recent fishing ones.
