Rob, if there's any way you can get over to Port Townsend any time from Friday morning to Sunday afternoon, you will get to talk to the man himself, Joe Greenley, along with half a dozen folks that have them there... You can get a ride as well, if you wish. They are all there for the R2K3 (Rondezvous 2003), one of the biggest boat shows on the West coat for Canoes and Kayaks. It's on the beach at Fort Worden State park between the pier and the Fort. Uh, you won't miss it that's for sure... There are consistantly over 100 boats there, since 2000.
There's usually a nice lunch, and a dinner involved and a ton of really friendly folks...

No matter where you live in Wa. or surrounding area, it's VERY WELL worth the trip. I went up from Central Calif. in 2001 and never had so much fun...
Folks from all over the states will be there, and as I mentioned, many have their boats there and will let you test them...

Go, Go, Go !!!!
