newly obsessed with kayaks
I was just sitting here at home in my server room, idly poking about my
network, when suddenly the idea of a kayak popped into my head out of the blue. I have no idea why, it just did. Now this is a subject which I have never given any thought to previously, so for this idea to suddenly arrive between my ears with the force it did was quite a puzzlement. Well, I ran with it, of course, and started digging about the web for information which didn't take long to find. I then focused on folding kayaks, then on Kleppers, and then on the Quattro XT. I am intensely fascinated with the idea of kayaking and of having a boat I can pack up and take with me anywhere for expeditions. I have been a deep wilderness camper for many years, but I have not as yet extended my forays into the water. It's high time I did. I am quite aware that I have a lot of homework to do here, and a lot of learning needs to happen before I put out with this boat, and given the fact that I could drown or suffer other disasters I will be very sure to take my time and start out slow. The Quattro XT is my choice because I want to take a lot of stuff with me, I want to be able to take another person at times, and I want a boat that can mount full sails, jib and mainsail. It is my intention to commit to mastering this boat. I have sailing experience on San Francisco Bay, in a 33 foot sailboat, and can handle myself in that okay, but have not as yet been in a folding kayak much less under sail. I'd like to hear from Quattro XT and other Klepper owners. Thanx! Amy Lewis |
