Asking the captain about this, two springer spaniels appeared from the cockpit and the reason became apparent. Talk about dog friendly!

Yep many boat owners take their dogs out here too. I see quite a few dogs on the water in kayaks and canoes.
When I first wondered what type of boats to get, I had Yaz in mind. I RTV'd down carpeting on all the major foot paths and ledges for him. It worked out well since he uses them and they grip well.
Rob: Yep, looks like that young Tom Vu had VERY high maintainence babes on his boat. I wonder how many of them wud want to join Yaz and me on our kay-yacht?
Ed: Your sailing rowboat sounded like fun. There are a number of dingys out here that are similar. The blue tarp works FB. I used the silver stuff to make my canoe sails. They are very durable compared to the non-rip nylon sail material I use on the kayak.
Ed/XAW: I've always liked the Sunfish. It uses a lot of sail and even planes when it gets going. It's a great little sailboat for fun.
Derb: Yep, Yaz is a retriver by breed. He will search and search until he finds that stick. Sometimes it will sink and I have to act like I'm leaving to get him to give up and swim back in...
Well, back to work. The high winds yesterday rotated the top 40M Yagi to slightly vertical. Gotta make up some additional strut brackets and outfit all three beams before the 50mph++ winter winds come along. I under-estimated the twist. Thought I was done climbing for the season... sigh.
