Hey there Spidey

I heard about you from John Schroeder last year. How's your back? I have a bad back myself and can only paddle long distances when reclined. It's real strange looking but it works for me.

Got to thank you for some real good inspiration images in the archives. Glad you're back. We're about to go on a long sail ourselves but will check in from time to time.

: Hello All;

: It's really great to see so many new & old posters discussing building
: topics and exchanging valuable information on such a continuing basis -
: Nick has created and maintained a great forum, and it looks like it's only
: getting stronger!

: I'm glad I've been able to contribute in a small way to this hobby, and I'll
: continue to maintain my website as long as it's of some help - Thanks for
: the nice words from those who have benefitted in some way from my kayak
: web site.

: As for me, I've continued to run the gamut of hobbies, and I always thought
: R/C helis with floats from a kayak could be fun . . . ;-) But I have
: instead migrated to larger & larger R/C airplanes (Sold my heli on
: Ebay last Christmas), and the new 3D mode of flying has piqued my interest
: - The most exciting part of 3D to me is hovering . . . Where an airplane
: wants to behave like a helicopter.

: The plane I'm currently building is BIG, and I include a pic to how something
: similar looks in a hover (not a pic of mine, darn), but please note, I
: look a lot better from behind than the pilot in this shot . . . (VBG) I
: don't think this to be a suitable kayak activity, it should probably be
: reserved for landlocked use.

: Keep up the great work guys, I always enjoy my visits to your forum.

: Best Regards,
: Spidey (AKA Ken)
