Can any of you recommend a good reference book or two? I'm particularly
fond of Bill Mason's "Path of the Paddle" as a canoeing reference. Is there
a similar work in print for kayakers?

You don't want Tom Foster's book, good as it is, for the paddling you're
going to do in a Pungo. Here's a short list of my favorites.

The Complete Sea Kayaker's Handbook, Shelley Johnson
Sea Kayaking Illustrated : A Visual Guide to Better Paddling, John Robison
Paddle Your Own Kayak: An Illustrated Guide to the Art of Kayaking, Gary
McGuffin and Joanie McGuffin

I think all of these are really good. The McGuffin book is especially
gorgeous to look at.
