: Nice looking boat. 20' is a long boat for "workouts around the
: lake". Are you a racer?

I am not really a racer. My normal workout is about 6 miles, and I have an irrational desire to make it around in an hour. Not particularly well-thought out, but a desire nonetheless. I can get my old yak up to about 5.4 mph for a couple of miles. I can get this one up to 6mph for a couple of miles, so now I have a target I may be able to hit. 8-)
