: Yeah, the're not well advertised. I think the only mention of them is in the
: Fall 99 "Notes from the Shop". John has made a few comments
: about adding it to the list of boats on the web page, but I expect that
: they are too busy to do so.

: I built it from a kit rather than plans. When I ordered it, I was in the
: middle of a move and almost all of my shop was in the process of being
: stored at a friends house. It's still there, and I just couldn't see going
: through the layout and cutting process and still get the boat built on
: schedule. I will be building another one for my wife (yes I'll happily
: send them the $10!), and it will be built from the plans.

: In the fall, after we have moved again (I hope), I'll make something for
: myself.

: Yes, it's pretty stable. My 11 year old daughter had no trouble with it at
: all. Within minutes she was spinning it on wavetops and surfing down the
: faces of boat wakes!

: My wife tried it and found it fine as well, despite being a bit bigger than
: my daughter.

: I finally got to take it out. It's a nice boat. I was surprised at how stable
: it was considering that at 5'10" and 160 lbs, I'm somewhat oversize
: for the boat. It tracked incredibly well, but was a bit sluggish turning.
: Not really suprizing as I had it fairly low in the water. Both my daughter
: and wife turned it much more easily than I.

: Hope this helps.

It's now on CLC's web site.

If it weren't for the sudden development of a bad case of epoxy sensitivity, my daughter's would be floating by now. Should be done in a couple of weeks though.

Can't wait to paddle with her.
