I realize that it's fashionable to bash Derek, but for someone that wrote a 
lot of "inaccurate" information about boat design, he sure has designed a 
lot of really nice kayaks.  I know that a lot of people find Derek strongly 
opinionated but in the class that I took with him, and the time my wife and 
I spend with him just chatting I found him to be quite charming.

Speaking of Derek's boat designs, has anyone paddled the new Current 
Designs Andromeda or the poly version, Sirocco?
