You got that right, Paul. Just this summer alone I have given 5 people their first chance to try out kayaking for the first time. The sixth person is heading out wtih me Wednesday after work (my collegue). I am now thinking of building kayak #6, a kid-sized kayak for Linda's grandchildren. What is a man to do but encourage the love by building up the fleet to please everyone. The kit I have in mind can be built in less that two weeks and can hold a kid weighing less than 100-lbs. I'd better get over to WD and price it out...summer is gonna end soon.

I can stop building if I want to...I just don't see any reason why I should, eh!
