Sharp looking ! congrats.

: I finally got a break in the weather to get in the maiden voyage. I
: had planned to go this morning with my son in his VolksKayak,
: but I ended up out all night on a house fire. (not mine, I'm a
: firefighter) After a few hours sleep, I headed out for a local
: power system pond, and did a very enjoyable hour on the water.
: Saw some young bald eagles playing around. The Guillemot handles
: like a dream on the water. This is a boat I've built for my
: daughter who's living in British Columbia, so I'll have to be
: careful not to scratch it up till we find a way to get it across
: the country.
