Yay, Yay... My Arctic Tern is built and she's beautiful. She's out of my 
living room and kitchen and out the window. Eight and a half weeks of living, 
sleeping, breathing kayak. No more dust, no tarp, no  more crawling on hands 
and knees just to turn off a light switch. No squeezing around an end just to 
get to the front door. Yay, Yay. Final sanding and varnishing will be 
OUTSIDE....                                             Oh the life of a 
kayaker,                                             Walt Levins                
                                Portland,Or.

Say, Walt... how about a picture? :-)

Cheers,

A big raised paddle salute to Walt!  Congratulations.  May you spend many a
fine hour in your new vessel.  Perhaps this is the motivation I needed to
get back to work on mine.  Yes, maybe tonight.

The BIG question Walt is does it float right side up? Congratulations on
your new craft

I would follow that up with "Does it float right side up, with you in 
it?"  If not we want details ;-)
