For those interested:

I put two new sections on my blog 'Clinics' and 'Drills'; it's all videos. You can find some of them on Mindy's site, certainly some on New Hope; I just collected the ones that I liked. They are all good, some are even better. Enjoy it.

Looking for an older model one man for a friend
Needs to be in Southern California and in the price range of $1500

This gal found $1,000 in a "Sweatin' to the Oldies" video case and turned it over to the Salvation Army.

http://niceone.aol.com/2008/12/01/girl-finds-1-000-in-thrift-store/

She is an ideal recruit as an outrigger canoeist because:

1. She clearly has no interest in becoming rich
2. She is attracted to the word "Sweatin'"
3. She takes advice from her mother

Come to think of it, how do we know how much was in that video box. Maybe she found more...

I have been doing some research on glycogen loading and replenishment , does anyone have any experience or views relating to waxy maize as a source of carbohydrate fuel?

Anyone have great Christmas gift ideas for paddlers or made up their Christmas wish list?

Aloha Gang, when you go to shop at our advertisiers stores to buy one mans, or whatever..mention ocean paddler tv as several of them are running discounts if mention our name..Check out our web-site at www.oceanpaddler.tv for the stores and supporters. We need to do what we can outside the box to keep them supporting our show, so we can stay on air..
Mahalo nui my friends.

Aloha everyone..Just a reminder, the Dec episode of Ocean paddler TV will start to air Tuesday night on OC-16.

Happy Holidays,
Terry

I added a section to my blog under 'OC1 Design - Reading', where I plan to post technical articles that relate to 'what makes a boat fast ?'

It is somewhat difficult to put full documents into a blog, I am experimenting how that can be done best. If anybody knows how, let me know.

If you have interesting articles that you would like to see in that section, please let me know.
