John Waters was the name I've missed most on PW but did see it there. Kinda'
got the feeling they wish we did like them but admitted we don't and don't use
them for all the above reasons. I've never paddled a double either and I'm
curious about that too.

Scott Bemis was also a member of Paddlewise for a while (I think he left
because of what he perceived to be anti-sponson bias), and the unnamed person
who had witnessed or experienced a couple of tows might be Bill Newman,
another
sometime Paddlewisenheimer.
