Funny you mention white water boats and the Guillemot. I had the opportunity to paddle several white water boats this weekend at a demo day. I also had the opportunity to paddle my first Guillemot. One of the local Arizona paddlers brought it. I was impressed with its' handling characteristics. I was also happy to learn that I can get my not small body in the little bitty cockpit opening.

I guess I'll have to do something with those forms on my workbench now.

: The Guillemot is a very maneuverable design. Try paddling a whitewater kayak,

: as if on rails!

: Keep paddling---it will get easier to go straight!
