There are only a couple things that I know, and one of those things got me thinking.....the dollar will continue to get weaker and OIL is going to sky rocket. Eventually I won't be able to afford to drive cause gas prices are so high. Since I won't be driving and I'll spend more time in the ocean I focused on which canoes offer me the most fun on the water. Here are a list of the boats that I have used extensively and my ranking of them by fun and performance on the water. All these are with the element of surf in the picture.

2. Fusion

After months of waiting the order for Fai3 and Are V1's and V3's has finally been placed. There are currently 13 V1's and V3's order for Hawaii, Seattle, San Francisco. The production will begin in early April and they will arrive to Oahu in August. I will be coming to Oahu to unload the container and spend about a week there paddling with some of the other recipients of their new Tahitian designed and built V1. During that time you will be able to demo my carbon V3 before I ship it to maui.

Since the message board is getting too boring for Rambo, I thought I would share this. We've been doing this quite regularly here, it's more efficient than bringing six one-mans out. This past weekend we did Makapu'u to Magic, the Thursday before that we did Hawaii Kai to Magic. On Sunday we had to pull off waves that were thought to be unimaganible to go down; as we get more comfortable and can afford it I say we don't pull off anymore.

I'm looking for someone with a OC1 trailer going to Maui after the Kaiwi Solo. I need to find a way to get my OC1 from Oahu to Maui before the Maui to Molokai race that following weekend.
