While I was picking up 5 kayaks for HOW in SO Cal I selfishly was looking for a place to park my trailer for free and take my family kayaking. Well, no trailer parking at the Newport Aquatic Center in Newport Beach Ca. I went in and told them I had just picked up some donated kayaks and had no where to park my car and trailer. In talking to them they decided they wanted to help HOW out. They told me they had just destroyed some of their loaner yaks but had three left that had some leaks. I could have them if I wanted them. They are OK Malibu Two tandems. They also dug through the back of their 100% awesome 1000 kayak storage and training facility and found some paddles to give me too. I could not thank them enough and was also welcomed back anytime I wanted and I would be allowed to park my trailer their too. Now to find and enclosed trailer for our 8 new/used HOW kayaks.
   A friend of mine came and picked up the 3 and paddled with us in newport bay today with his tandem  and then delivered to my dads.

They will be left at my dads till we can arrange a pick up or shuttle back to Nor Cal. If anyone is headed down south and can pick up 1-3 tandems sometime it would be great.

Thanks, Rob
