Wow. Cool TR and great pix.

Thanks, it was fun.

BTW, what kind of boat it that in this pic?:


Dave Scadden Escalade. It's not being made any more. 45" beam, 8.5
feet long, one main wrap around vinyl chamber inside a hypalon zippered
cover. Seat is another flotation chamber, and the backrest is stiff
foam flotation. A hole in the floor lets you use fins on lakes like a
cross between a belly boat and a pontoon boat. We use kyak paddles for
moving around. Top speed 2.5 mph (measured with my GPS).

You've made a short url that gets to my pictures, thanks.


What's the biggest water you'd take it through?
I'm not good at classifying the waters. I stick to places with waves
smaller than 2 feet tall, and speeds below 10 miles per hour. Andy has
taken it over a 5 foot drop (no fishing tackle, wet suit, with several
friends in white water kyaks). I might try that if equipped and
accompanied as he was, but not while fishing.
