Re: [Paddlewise] August Sea Kayaker

Craig and all,

we have a joke whenever we do a club trip and gather at the put in: let's not have George Gronseth do the write up for this trip, so let's be safe out there, folks. So my introduction to most of Sea Kayaker's readers is a particular screw up of mine. That's alright, we solved our own problems. A good friend of mine who was on that trip said I shouldn't worry, he has now starred in two safety articles.

I haven't paddled with Duane in a few years, but he is very fun to paddle with and one helluva paddler. He has made alot of contributions to Sea Kayaker and Sea Kayaker is better off for it.

Cheers,

Rob G

Paddlewisers should be proud. Two of us have major articles in the August,
2008 issue of Sea Kayaker Magazine. Rob Gibbert with an excellent analysis
of a paddle gone awry in Rosario Strait (San Juan Islands, Washington State)
and Duane Strosaker's wonderful piece on Catalina Island (to which, and from
which, he's led several single day paddles ... an amazing feat except that
feet probably didn't have much to do with it... over 40 miles in one day).

Golly, every paddler should be reading (and contributing to) this forum.
