Hi Jan, I'm glad that you enjoyed it. I am also happy for you that you have the experience of what appears to be a great pass time and the beauty of island waters. Thank you for your kind words. Take care. Earl

Hi Casarah, Thank you. It does look like fun. I've never done it. I just thought the words, Kayak and Haiku blended together well. There was some research of the Eskimo culture and types of hides that covered the thin metal crafts first. I wanted to get the history and feel for it and watched some film on the subject as well. Thanks again and have a pleasant evening. Earl
