Anybody Want a Grebe?

Well, first of all, I'm not trying to sell anything so I hope I'm not getting crosswise of the guidelines. Here's the situation.

Last Fall, I sent a Grebe (kid's kayak - 13'6" LOA) out to Sea Kayaker Magazine for them to use in one of their reviews. It's the shiny one with the clearcoat finish. Well, they are done with it and I can get it back. However, the hassle of getting it packed up and freight back here (Minnesota) seems a bit much at the moment and there no plans for me to be travelling out that way at least for now. So, since there are a bunch of you out that way, thought maybe someone might be interested in running in and grabbing it. Paddle it around, use it as a reference to build another from the free offsets on our web site, whatever, don't make no nevermind here. Guess I would like it to someday work its way back here, but no rush (my grandson has his eyes on it, but I can stall him for most of this summer :) I hope).

Maybe this is a dumb idea, but just thought I would mention it in case someone didn't think it was dumb. Probably just e-mail me off the bbs.
