Nope, It was Saturday after the minicel installation. I have it on good authority that all you did in the Friday test drive was some bracing, but no rolls until Saturday. (I think maybe you look like that every time, kinda like Michael Jordan sticking his tougue out on that fast break slam dunk -- Shawn Baker grimacing in pain as he rolls up his Kayak????)

Roger, Thanks for sharing the photo, now I have undisputed documentary evidence that the Rehd boat will roll so that this fall/winter when I'm working on adding that skill to my repertoire I can look to this fine photo (and our friend Shawn) for inspiration. (And, I've had the retractable skeg rigged, but there hasn't more than a faint breeze here since for over a week so I haven't been able to really see how well it works. Now I really can't wait for a good windy day to go out and play....)
