Heh.


How long to you think it will take you to get to the Canyons? :)


I was messing around with it in Scituate Harbor yesterday afternoon. Using
the pedal drive system it is surprisingly fast if you really go at it. I
was racing the launch service boat and actually was able to keep up with it
for a while. Easy pedaling produces a perfect trolling speed for stripers.

I also got the sail kit for it. I'll try that next.


Holy crap, pedal power, sails? OK, maybe it is cooler than I thought.
I have an old Klepper folding kayak with sails, but no pedal power,
just steering.
