MOST INTERESTING KAYAK TRIP:
I've done a couple 1-2 week trips solo on the coast of Maine.  I remember
feeling very free and alive, like never before.  Not talking to another
human for a few days was interesting.

BIO:
Been paddling some sort of craft ever since I can remember (32 now).  Grew
up sailing
on the coast of Maine with my family, exploring every nook and cranny.  I
usually paddle every other day, year round.  With a 6AM paddle before work
to wake you up, who needs coffee!  Enjoy competition as well as just
cruising around.  Finally completed my goal to learn my roll this year.
Working on a 19' design to build this winter.  Now have 2 other people in my
life to share paddling with.
