Kayak as Wheelbarrow

Chris demonstrating the use of the kayak as a wheelbarrow.

When we spent the weekend showing off the kayak at the Wooden Boat Show, we used the kayak to haul in the materials for the display.  It was fun when some one called out to us: "Great wheelbarrow!"
Note the final version of the cart we created: rugged, sturdy, but not light weight!  I have great confidence in the wheels, as they have been on several Arctic expeditions with me and successfully hauled a heavy kayak over rocks and tundra!

Kayak's First Accidental Roll!

So who is the winner of the pool on when Deb will first dump in the new kayak?  Not so fast folks...

Breakfast menu and some gear it requires

Turkish tea and yoghurt-granola-fruit-nut-seed mixture at home

Will my usual breakfast at home, that I'm happy to eat every day, work on the expedition?

Joey Schott is busy turning Deb's Chesapeake 18 into the ideal expedition kayak.  Here's where you can watch the death and rebirth.
