Hi Andree
Your site gave me a server error of some kind when I tried to submit the
following:

Glad to see your site is up and running again. Please note the information
on how not to buy a stolen kayak you attribute to John Kurtz was originally
written by me and distributed to many kayak shops from here to San Diego
when we were trying to catch Ron Freeman. As OOC was one of the shops I
faxed it to John was probably just passing it on when you snagged it. You
will find the latest version at www.marinerkayaks.com.
Also, You may want to make a link from the stolen kayak section to
www.marinerkayaks.com as I have a database of about 140 stolen kayaks there
in an organized form that the buyer or potential buyer can access fast to
see if his or her kayak is on the list. There is also a questionnaire that
directs a victim to supply information that is more usable than the often
incomplete information they tend to leave in bulletin posts. You might be
able to use it (especially the parts of it I publish) as a guide to the
information they need to provide to increase the odds of getting their kayak
back. Finally the last kayak on your list (stolen from Lake Sammamish) was
returned to its owner when I recognized its similarity to one the police had
confiscated from a truckload of stolen goods and were calling kayak dealers
about to try and find the owner. Although the colors they called it were
quite different there was enough similarities to make me suspicious it might
be the same one. It was.
Oh, I think our new website has a lot of information in the manuals section
that could be of value to sea kayakers whatever boats they paddle. You might
want to consider a link.
