Last weekend there was a lot of activities out on the ice on our lake Runn. There was iceskating, snowscooters, horses, bathing, flying and you name it. A couple of thousand people was out on the ice these fantastic days.
Just to notice people that the iceage will soon cease and there is another fantastic way to use the water, I dragged out two of my strippers and showed them. At least a couple of houndred people stopped by and asked questions and admired the wooden kayaks. I think I´ve salved some of them from the glassfibres and tupperwares. I have names for at least three more kayakbuildingcircles.
There must be something special about woodenboats, and especially wooden kayaks, wonder what that can be....
The kayaks I dragged out was a Panache and a ShootingStar. I can pass on a lot of admiration to you, Rob Macks. These designs are outstanding! A lot of people didn´t understand how I dared to take these kayaks out from the livingroom. My answer to that is that it would be an utterly insult to the designer and builder not to use these extremely high performance kayaks in their right element.
