Due to continuing problems with the "multi-tasking" required for me to paddle on the Sound [dealing with tides, currents, weather, navigation, etc... while paddling] I have had to decide to sell my Northwest Kayaks Pursuit... I still have my Old Town Loon for using on lakes, and have decided that by the time I am really capable of heading back out into the Sound, I will also be able to build my own boat... I also have other things that are now unnecessary for sale such as Standard Marine VHF, a paddle float [I'm keeping one] most probably a drysuit [non-Goretex] and my Camano [glass] paddle, pump, and skirt, among others... I am still working at getting my wood turning skills back, and have sold a number of what I call, "Reminders," which are described on my page... I have a "5x8ft shop" to work in finally and some people seem to like what I have managed so far... Perhaps it is better that I sell a boat I cannot really use as I intended now, and put that money to use in my shop where I am at least making some progress? I will still be paddling, just will do it in fresh water, sort of like the way I started back in Michigan. I will be a subscriber to this list but will probably read it, as I have in the recent past, more in "chunks," than regularly... If anyone is interested, please contact me off-list eh? Photo's of the boat can be seen on my homepage under the "pre-Sept. 99" section... Thank you for your time...
