OK, I also concur with Sandy about the idea. We can always delete what we don't want, and so far I haven't seen the Paddlewise list getting too cluttered with replies (not like the classic rudder v no rudder debate!) OK so here's my stuff: I'm Kevin Kenney, 36 father two two great girls. I am a CDR in the Navy and currently stationed in Rhode Island (great paddling on the Naragansett) but we'll be moving to Jacksonville FL in about 3 weeks. (any gouge on the area would be appreciated) My callsign is Sluf (short little ugly fellow-- What, you expected everybody got cool callsigns like Maverick and Ice?) I am a Navy Helo pilot by trade, also a Test Pilot, so I've flown lots of stuff from F-18's to 707's, and as I've said in other posts, I have plenty of SAR experience too. I am primarily a day paddler, with my longest trips being weekends in Baja Mexico.Been paddling since '94, but I'm still very much a novice (I can manage a Pawlata roll on a good day : ) I am secretly getting my wife involved by letting her paddle whenever she wants to, and by bringing the girls along whenever I can. Since I live on the water I commute to work by Kayak 3-4 days a week (Yes I know, life's rough) and hope to continue the trend in FL when I get there. I paddle a WS Sealution II XS and I like it a lot. I am currently in the market for a K-light (Hint Hint) as my time aboard ship means I can't bring a stiffy along with me. I have been paddling in places such as Hong Kong, Singapore, Thailand, Australia and the Persian Gulf (not recommended). I'm sure I'm missing stuff, but that ought to give everyone a flavor for who I am.

Hope you have higher water than I did though! e Elaine Harmon - eilidh_at_dc.seflin.org - eharmon_at_cs.miami.edu *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - All postings copyright the author and not to be reproduced outside PaddleWise without author's permission Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************
The Florida Boating Advisory Council deferred action on any recommendations on the volatile issues of registering all vessels http://www.jacksonville.com/tu-online/stories/102499/spo_1029925.html We squeaked by for another year but they will probably try again next year.
