Date: Mon, 23 Aug 1999 18:18:32 EDT
Hi, guys:

Maligiaq's boat is in Miami - courtesy of Scott Baxter who will take it up to 
Waterways Kayak tomorrow where Chuck Davis has kindly offered to store it.  
Hopefully it will be on display and those interested can go an see it.  It's 
18" wide!  I spoke with Maligiaq today and he kindly said I could try it "if 
you are skinny."  Anyone who has seen my hips will be laughing right now!!

M has indicated that he wants to race in the 5-mile race with the 18-39ers.  

Paddlewiser Kirk Olsen has offered to contribute the $50 Registration Fee for 
Maligiaq.  THANK YOU, THANK YOU, KIRK.

I'm now looking for a volunteer to narrate the rolls. Since Scott Baxter has 
already volunteered to go out in his boat as a monitor, I'm wondering if he 
would consider doing this?  

To quote Mark Zen: "I've never even really seen much in the way of greenland 
style boats before meeting Maligiaq ;) and i was able to narrate.  maligiaq 
wrote his routine down on paper, his dad helped a bit, and i winged it from 
the water -while in my boat."  I have asked the Cystic Fibrosis event 
coordinator to arrange for a bullhorn or other loudspeaker system.  HOW ABOUT 
IT SCOTT?  Anybody else willing to volunteer in case Scott can't?

I am copying this to a list I've made of local paddlers.  I will be sending 
updates to the main Paddlewise list but won't bore the members with the 
little things that need to be arranged.  Local paddlers: Please let me know 
if you want to be kept on or if you would like your name deleted.  

IF THERE ARE ANY PADDLEWISE MEMBERS WHO WOULD LIKE TO BE ADDED PLEASE LET ME 
KNOW.

Sorry this is so long.

i had a lot of fun. i still have my drawings/notes from maligiaq. as long
as you watch either his tape, or "amphibious man" beforehand, you'll have
more of a clue ;-) maligiaq is great to work with, and i can forward along
what i can decipher ;-)
