Who else would like to share with the group their personal paddle craft tally? I do like Pam's idea of one kayak for each day o' the week. My personal SWMBO would disagree quite strongly BTW. Laundry lists with colorful descriptions of favorite old war horses welcome. Doug's 100+ lb VCP comes to mind. My list is small but tasteful depending on your taste. Single baidarka with proud war paint. Double baidarka with optional matching sail and war paint. Tern 14 with deck festooned with geckos, poison dart frogs and butterflies. Surf jet SOT with matching faded thigh straps. Old Town OTCA who has yet to open up to me and tell me her history.
