CornPup had to stay home this time, while I tried out a two man inflatable kayak carried deflated on the bow. You can see it in the video's strapped down with a web type bungie. Worked out pretty good. Puts the weight forward, which is always good, and didn't get in the way of the genoa or hang up the jib sheets all week. I use a rechargeable pump to inflate and deflate it. Only takes about a minute. Doesn't paddle as well as the hard shell kayak, but for two people or only occasional use it looks to be a good way to go. At least for guys with roller furling. It may be in the way a little for hanking on a sail, or if your bow cleat is in the center. I moved my cleats out near the toe rails when I redid the sandwich core in the foredeck. Wish I could join you guys for your August cruise down there, but with the price of gas.... ouch! Larry On Tue, 15 Jul 2008 12:00:48 EDT Nebwest2@aol.com writes:

Great fun watching the videos Larry. Thanks!

Looks like you put Corndog through her paces. No Cornpup this time? Wish we could have had some of that kind of wind on the last few sailing trips we've made!
