I sure will, I'll try to get pics of the process too.

A slightly different take -- having moved 8 times in the past 10
years, I have tended to give away, throw-out (its amazing what you
can't give away these days), sell, break or lose many of my
possessions, culling my things to a smaller, yet still "obnoxious"
pile of stuff. One move was for 3 mo
Off, when you get done would you upload pictures of it to the Photos

The very first to come to mind are the most prominent of all to me: my
children. They definite

That boat looks great Marek! "Light" is such an important feature in
a kayak because so many cool places to kayak that don't have
convenient boat put-in points. You carry the boat on one side of your
body so it really matters IMO. Hard shell boats really move faster in
the water then mine does.
Hey, Curtis, I looked up "dealers" on the site and one of the
outdoor stores here in Eureka carries the line but all they had was
one of the canoes from the company and not the advanced frame like
you have. Although I've been planning to build one of the Pygmy
Boats kayaks "someday" it require

Around $400. A good paddle will cost about 80 mor
Great story, Curtis. Again, that is *exactly* what
I had in mind when I brought up this subject. It's
not the actual "pedigree" of the object that matters;
it's what it means to US.
If a rock or an oyster shell or a shard of Anasazi
pottery has a special meaning to US, who cares if it
has any wort
Curtis, I like your boat a lot and I looked all through the site but
couldn't find out what the costs were; can you give me an idea of
what your model costs?

What a great looking boat! I really like the look of wood. I am
suspicious of the claimed weight. For a wood boat that size 39 pounds
seems too light. That is the weight of my much shorter boat. Here is

Great story, Curtis, and extremely resonant. Surfing has been like

Great topic and great stories Marek and Turq,
I have used objects as anchors for states of mind. One that comes to
mind was a simple oyster shell that I picked up from the water off
Jane's Island on the Chesapeake Bay. It is not a collector's shell,
it is downright ugly. I keep in my car and ru
