Gentlemen and Ladies

ENOUGH !!   This topic has  now been beaten to death from technical points of
view, from financial points of view, from moral points of view,  and  from
points of view/opinions of all sorts about its practicality.

Let's have a "time out" and go on to other subjects.

With all due respect..........  Ol-Kayaker

Then delete without reading them. That's what I do, though not with this
topic - I've learned a lot.

BTW, VHF with GPS is a great option too.

Hmmm...other subjects.

Rudders versus skegs versus Mariners.

Kayaking with weapons.

Hands free bailing and paddlefloats.

Most visible kayak color.

First nation treaties/loss of access.

Dress for air or water temps?

Are surf skiis real kayaks (kidding Kirk)?

Best epoxy for building a kayak.

Euro versus Greenland paddles.

PFD's and surfing.

Pick your poison. :-)

Yah, and I have these floating orbs in my vision from too much Drop Top, I 
think.  Should I be concerned, Dr. Ruth?
