A bit easier URL http://tinyurl.com/ygm2wsg Agree on the odd description. "Row" a kayak? Is that the term commonly used for paddling a kayak in WI? Beautiful boat.

I'm guessing not hot, either. Would be nice to see photos of the hull. $400 seems pricey for shipping but then, I haven't had a boat shipped in years. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).

Shipping cost.... cost me more that $200 to ship my LongHaul Mark I from Houston to California...$400 may not be so bad...i'd want to be protective of the hull. john --- On Tue, 2/23/10, Jackie Myers <jackie_at_muddypuppies.com> wrote: From: Jackie Myers <jackie_at_muddypuppies.com> Subject: Re: [Paddlewise] Single Birth Kayak To: "Dave Kruger" <kdruger_at_pacifier.com> Cc: "Paddlewise" <PaddleWise_at_paddlewise.net> Date: Tuesday, February 23, 2010, 10:08 AM Dave Kruger wrote: > Way odd.
