I found a break in the ice on the river by my house to drop the kayak in for a quick trial. There was not enough open water for real sea trials, but I was able to determine that the boat floats upright and is comfortable to sit in and has no obvious bad behaviors. I'll be doing more indepth sea trials later.
Once more I will be supporting Chesapeake Light Craft at Canoecopia. I generally am working on a boat building demonstration in their booth and I will do a presentation or two.
