This changes everything
Yeah...it was unreal watching four guys carrying the canoe. Made it hard for us to get into our 400lb.+ 6 man. Lots of advantages...great to see you guys doing a lot. I am sure there will be plenty of the 21st century canoes out on the water soon.

is that legal where you live? or is that why it looks like it is night time. Stealth Missions.

Wow!
Looks very cool.
How does that rig handle a stiff tradewind?
What's the farthest you've transpo'd like this?

Hehe. I like this.
And don't worry too much about progress - things are progressing even while I type this.

I'd say it can handle the car ride very well. Kapa'a handled legitimately huge seas in it's debut.

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.
Hopefully some company will will mass produce these soon, because the time is now and we seem to be letting it slip by. Maybe they are working on the perfect boat. If they are then they are letting perfection get in the way of progress.
