    You bet - I have a wilderness streams Alto - long with a rudder, and can move with a stroke of a twig

    it's rated as a medium duration touring one. Where would you guys like to go?

      Who does the rating on these things and what does that all mean?

        Hi Peter,

        I'm referring to my kayak, the type and the recommended length of trip to go on with it based on the cargo capacity, I suppose. As for the who, that's the manufacturer.

      Hey there Crazy! Thanks for the reply. We have two whitewater kayaks -- a Necky and a Dagger. We also have a canoe. Are you in the NC area? Where do you like to go?? My husband has paddled most of the rivers in the state, with a few exceptions. I am a beginner, but he has taught the whitewater for NOLS on several occasions-- kayaking is a major passion. Having moved here a couple years ago, we just haven't found anyone to go with -- which is kind of helpful in terms of safety, setting shuttle et cetera.
      Let me know if you're interested and we'll try to set something up!
