I took my sit-on-top kayak and put it in my back pond and paddled a
good 100 yds (that's several kilometers in metric) through the
duckweed and algae. It isn't Wilko sized but at least it is a trip
report, of sorts.

LOL! We've got a couple of ponds in our pasture - the big one is, oh, maybe
150' by 50', a little bigger in the rainy season. 'Bout a foot and a half
deep except for the "deep end" where it *might* make it to three feet in
really wet weather.

I've started several kids out on it - it's a trip of sorts... ;D

First place I ever paddled my own kayak was the flooded parking lot of
the livery from which I had just purchased a used Kiwi Kopapa, my
first kayak!

Midwest flood of 1993! :-)
