: :...I got to thinking

: I use it for every build. I once wrapped it too much and was able
: to paddle for 45 minutes and could have gone longer. I now put
: on just enough to stay out 5-10 min. There is no danger of it
: breaking a frame (or if there is, the builder had better start
: over!) and BTW, we SOF builder lovingly call it the "saran
: wrap test". You can find some images on my website
: http://paddleandoar.com but my favorite one is where the game
: warden came down to check what the heck was going on!

: A quick " check your sanity" look fore u got it in the water? :) Kevin
