Most of us Kiwis are taller than 5ft, but less than 6ft 6in. I haven't heard
of an 8 footer, but he would be better called a basketball player than a sea
kayak <g>

The actual kiwi is a flightless bird, nocturnal, not a waterfowl, and will
possibly be extinct in another fifty years or so. Not a great brand name for
a kayak.
