[Paddlewise] Bergans Ally 560 folding kayak - pictures from test paddling

I was paddling this weekend a demo of Ally 560 folding sea kayak by 
Bergans of Norway - a less known folder, interesting unusual design, 
fast kayak (18'4" x 23") comparable perhaps only with Feathercraft 
Katsalano. I can compare her directly to my old Feathercraft K1.

I've posted a few pictures from my test paddling and will write some 
comments sometime during this week.

I also paddled my 5 mile virtual race this morning before packing the 
kayak and shipping back to a dealer. It was rather a fast cruising pace 
than racing.
