At the ARW Hali tourney weekend before last, I received a heads up from Nudling on a great opportunity to purchase a great, great deal on a AI. So, after trading in some WAF points I got an early father's day gift to myself. This is a short clip of my maiden voyage off of ARW yesterday. Please excuse the lousy vid quality/size...it was taken with the iphone. Now, I've got some big shoes to fill with all the fish juju and blood on this yak previously owned by Bensyak. But I'm more that ready to meet the challenge!

Rey, thanks for the welcome. I actually had a chance meeting with Novofish and his wife at ARW yesterday. They were trying out a tandem of theirs to prepare to shadow members of a triathlon next month. On the way to ARW I noticed the flags in the area with showing a outshore NE wind. When I left the ramp I sailed towards crown memorial beach and caught up with Tony and wife again. Long story short, I had to learn and practice tacking back upwind to get back to the ramp because pedalling was not an option at that point! What a rush!! Cannot wait to do it again and....get some fish blood on that yak again!
