Re: Took the plunge!
Go to Public or WD. They usually have a few laying around.
The Judge asked the prostitute, "At what point did you realize you were raped?"
The prostitute replied (wiping away tears), "When the check bounced."

Drill no holes fro a month - resist the urge - bungee down the milk crate and tie wrap a couple pieces PVC as for holders - fish and - paddle a few times - what you think you need to have will change the more you use it.....
Also what you easily reach in the garage changes in the waves!
That being said Congrats ROB !

Re: Took the plunge!
Having your kids stand on the yak is a whole lot of difference compare to you. They weigh less than a hundred pounds.

I have seen side floaters to give you better stability for standing up. Something like a training wheels on the bicycle. I believe Hobie offer it for their yak. Im pretty sure there is a aftermarket company that makes one.

If I stood on that yak you would have seen me standing on water. Yak will be underwater.

BTW, easiest way for me to flip it back is to reach under to the tether on the opposite side, and pull on that while I press the near side gunnell up - flips back quickly.
BTW - I learned that the hard way, then had to free dive for some gear.....
2 things to remember - Leashes and practice that flip !

There may be a few windows in march and april....but the summertime is really where it is AT !rob762 wrote:Thanks! Now if the wind will just die down enough to get it out...
You should just park the kids on the beach, bring the yak and play around a few times - Launching and landing in the surf will take a few tries, but it is not rocket science....some folks like to re enter backwards - they say it helps - me - I like to come in / land Perpandicular to the break of the wave NOT perpandicular to shore.
