If SK won't publish it, then try Paddler or Canoe and Kayak.  SK would be my
first choice too, but the others have some good articles in them too.  Also,
just write the article yourself.  Coordinating with others is just too hard.

Duane and others seem to have interpreted this situation as somehow due to
Sea Kayaker's reluctance to publish the article because of its content. That
is not the case at all. They want very badly to publish the article but as
written it can't be published (by anybody) because the permission to use
part of the material submitted has not been secured. Any other magazine
would be in the same situation as Sea Kayaker at this point (and even if
that were not the case given the work Sea Kayaker has already put into this
article I wouldn't feel right about taking it anywhere else without their
permission anyhow).
Sea Kayaker has offered to pay me for the article even though they may not
be able to use it. They are being more than fair to me.

Personally, I think the incident contains many valuable lessons for sea
kayakers and I would like to see if I can make it happen even though it will
mean a lot more work on my part for no additional pay. Due to my busy summer
season I can tell you that if a major rewrite does happen it won't happen
real soon. I burned a lot of midnight oil on this last summer in hopes of
getting it out quickly to no avail. I'm no longer in such a hurry and as yet
I'm not even sure it can happen.
