: Folks
: A year ago I looked for ideas from the forum for a Kayak that would perform
: as a good sea boat on the irish atlantic coastline. I decided to build Rob
: Macks North Star and can say that everything that Rob claims about the
: kayak is true. All in all it's simply superb.
: So anybody who is tall I'm 6'4" and looking for a design with leg room
: that can handle sea and wind - the North Star has got to be on your short
: list.
: I'd post a picture but can't figure out how to upload one.
: Thanks to everybody for all the help during the build
: Pat

Would love to see a pix, that's one of the boats on my list of boats to build (getting to be an awfully long list ).

Pictures: can't upload pix to this forum directly. Have to have the picture on some other site on the web first. There are several free picture sites for this. Then you use the "Optional Image URL" link at the bottom of this screen to add the picture. Remember that there is already a start of a link there, can only have one: "http://" per web address, so you might have to delete one set.

This is pretty common on the web since pictures take up alot of space on servers and that space ain't free.
