Default Porta-Bote

Hi, Charlie, and Dan,

Porta-bote!

I see you changed out the oarlocks. Good move.

See my gallery for more on that:
http://justpickone.org/skip/gallery/..._Modifications
- where I added sculling rowlocks for use with my 10' sculling oars.
See the archives for discussion, but they work quite nicely under the
circumstances.

Dan wrote about boarding from the water:

Dan, please share your technique for re-entry on snorkeling, as I'd
sure love to be able to use ours as our snorkeling vehicle, too, and
not just the sports car of the dinks.

Do you carry yours assembled, or, if not, how do you deal with limited
flat space for assembly - and where do you stow it and the
seats/transom? How's the black marking from the tubes been?

Thanks.

Skip, getting much closer to sea trials (see separate post)

"And then again, when you sit at the helm of your little ship on a
clear
night, and gaze at the countless stars overhead, and realize that you
are
quite alone on a great, wide sea, it is apt to occur to you that in the
general scheme of things you are merely an insignificant speck on the
surface of the ocean; and are not nearly so important or as
self-sufficient
as you thought you were. Which is an exceedingly wholesome thought,
and one
that may effect a permanent change in your deportment that will be
greatly
appreciated by your friends."- James S. Pitkin
