In just over a year she is finally finished. After putting on a few final touches this past week we strapped the kayak to the top of the Subaru (we decided not to play what fits on the Fit, I think the great little car may have tipped!) and drove down about a ½ mile to Island lake where she was launched for the first time. Not only did she float, but she carried us right where we wanted her to and held us steady as we paddled around. On Wednesday we hope to do our first salt water experience in the Puget Sound. After a few more paddles we will yet again place her back into dry dock to give her a final sanding and a coat of varnish. Stay tuned for the many adventures to come!
