Faith replied to Glenn Rogers's discussion Wilderness Systems Tsunami 175 Pro"I have a friend who is paddling a Tempest on the Missouri MR340 in August. It has the same seat as the Tsunami. The seat was an issue for her, she is small-framed and customizing for comfort has been a challenge."
Faith replied to Sarah E. Weil's discussion light weight sea kayaks in the group Sea Kayaking"Go kevlar or traditional. A skin-on-frame is down to 30-some pounds. Not sure what your price point or destinations are, so good luck."

"Well, I'm sold! I'd love to join in. I'm also in MN and if you plan another float this year, I'd appreciate a tour. Got a couple of people that would like to join in also."
Faith commented on Geoff Jennings's group Fishing Kayaks"Thanks to all of you for your help in this. Since I'm not looking for a rocket kayak, at least not to fish in, the Commander sure looks like to be the craft that will fit the fishing bill. Great pix Jason! I'm going for…"
Faith commented on Geoff Jennings's group Fishing Kayaks"Ok. It's been a while since anyone has posted. Since our easy winter will be winding down, I'm looking at kayaks again. I'm looking for info on the WS Commander (12 or 14). I want the good, bad, and anything…"

Faith commented on TJ & Lava's blog post Anticipation..."It's so enjoyable to read a new kayak is so much fun. I was in the same boat when I purchased mine (no pun intended).

Sorry my comment was a bit terse. Many of my friends also sent me this video. Since we are in Orca country it caught our attention. There is a cool website www.snopes.com that tackles hoaxes and urban myths. Go to the sight and type in orca in the search box. They have a report on this video. Take Care

robert krogstad said… - Thank you for the comment. The paddlepac uses inflatable pontoons (made by Jacks Plastic Welding) with a wood/aluminum deck (48"x32") and aluminum connecting arms. It connects to the user with a belt that has a quick release buckle. The entire unit will disassemble and fit in a storage/carrying bag. I should have the paddlepac for sale on ebay within a few weeks. You may go to paddlepac.com to see my prototype, the retail model will have a larger deck and larger pontoons.
Thank you again for your comment.

- I needed a new cockpit cover and when reviewed the products, I decided on Seals brand. When I went to purchase, it does not show the sizes in length/width. I reviewed the Seals page and fitting is precise and goes by the make and model of the craft. Well, having had my kayak for a few years, my model was not listed. In the contact page Seals say they will contact you within 24 hours - and they DID!!! My kudos goes out to their biz and crew for a fine job!!! http://www.sealsskirts.com/index.html
