Guess there aren't a lot of boats where you can do that. :-) Which half? The choice a person makes in which half of a folding kayak to take actually tells a lot about his/her personality. Just like when you replace a roll of toilet paper on to its spool (do you have the paper set to be pulled from the top or the bottom?). :-) > > Thanks for all the support and encouragement, especially to those who took time to write me personally. > > Peter > (Waiting for the Danube to warm up in Vienna!) I suspect you are aware of the big clubs' annual paddle down the entire length of the Danube, which you can join at various points. When NATO was bombing all those bridges over the Danube last year, I thought a lot about what would happen to that annual event as I know one of the through paddlers who has paddled in it all the way to the sea. ralph diaz -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Ralph Diaz . . .
