It handles great, the only "problem" I have found is that it is hard to handle by myself on a lake when the wind picks up because the hull is so high out of the water. I had hoped it would work well as a solo and a double but I think I really need a kayak for solo paddles.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12213131293368857479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5846515902679035772.post-76393207596723505272015-05-12T00:30:18.130-04:002015-05-12T00:30:18.130-04:00Have you had it in the water yet?

It reminded me instantly of my piece,<i>Art Frame</i>, which doesn't qualify as a painting because no paint was used, but I would call it an art piece with a minimalistic canvas.<br /><br />Excellent post. I enjoyed the art, your photographs and your text.<br /><br />ChrisChrisHasFlairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01789176232191404489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5846515902679035772.post-32705614079605373132013-12-05T17:27:49.645-05:002013-12-05T17:27:49.645-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.ChrisHasFlairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01789176232191404489noreply@blogger.com
