: I launched the kayak on Sunday 7-30-2000. Quite a few friends showed up and
: we took turns taking it out on the water. Debbie, Kyle, and I took the
: first paddle. It was a little bit windy and the wind was steering the boat
: for me. This kayak really NEEDS a rudder (sorry Dean). I'm currently
: waiting for one to come in at the store so I can buy it and put it on.

: We didn't get very many pictures, but I should have some more soon when my
: father-in-law gets them to me.

: I think he got some of the wooden paddles I made.
