This is the wife on the far end of the lake as I was vegging on the dock.

Zoomed in you can see the eagle that buzzed her.

Cool. It's a good kayak. Got it from a guy who was changing jobs and moving to Florida. $50. I think I've had it for about 7 year or so now. Kid is getting old enough now that we can do this stuff again so it might be time to buy her one of her own.

Just PM me when you're ready to look at another one and I'll try to the best of my ability to describe what to look at and the eff ups in manufacturing. You shouldn't have to cut yourself on a piece of plastic.

Just got this for the kid. Craigslist for $125, plus the paddle. Guy said he used it once, tipped it over and decided then and there that it wasn't for him.
