Hello from the Maine coast!

Two comments:

First, I would "second" Steve's comment about his GS skeg. My experience 
exactly. Had a rudder for years and much prefer the skeg on my GS. 
Continuous adjusting has advantages without doubt.

Next, I have been intrigued for some time with the Nordkapps (Bob Denton). 
If ever I would have a chance to paddle other boats, my two choices would 
be the Nordkapp and the Romany. I have this strange need to feel I made the 
correct decision on getting my GS 400 miles ago. I know... I shouldn't get 
hung up on things like that.
