RE: [Paddlewise] Ocean Paddler

No. Ocean Paddler does not have a Web page. Great River Outfitters,
importer of Nigel Dennis Kayaks and Valley Canoe Products kayaks, is
the North American distributor of the magazine, so I assume it can be
found in most shops that carry those kayaks. I bought my copy at
Midwest Mountaineering in Minneapolis.
