Hi all--

Just coming on board.  Fairly new to this, but getting more into it as time goes on.  I've been paddling quite a bit in sit-ins, and fishing / crabbing a good deal off piers and in the surf, and figured, hey, let's put both these things together!  To that end, I just picked up an ancient Necky Dolphin to have a SOT for fishing/ crabbing, and thought I'd get involved over here to get some pointers/ lurk a bit, maybe hit the Crabfest  at Doran...

Thanks for letting me stink up the place!

The Dolphin is a pretty sweet kayak, see you at Crabfest.

Good to know, I've only had the chance to take it out once so far, and man, for a SOT, it's fast, almost as fast as my wife's dagger sit-in. 

Now to find a 12"x9" milk-crate-esque crate to take advantage of the small squared out landing behind the seat. Harder to find than I suspected.
