Wilderness Systems Cape Pro 14’5”
Wilderness Systems Cape Pro 15’5”
For the kids and wife. These are nice wide stable kayaks with rudders for those who just like to go out once in a while and putz around.

My Kayak is a P&H Capella 163.
A very nice mid-size (16’5”) kayak for tooling around on local lakes, weekend camping, or even a week up on Superior. Easy to roll, easy to maneuver, fast and nice looking. What else can you ask for???

You might see me in my OT 138 Loon, my CD Sirocco, or maybe my Eskimo inflatable. And one of these days you might see me in a new NC Expedition.

Wilderness Systems Tempest 170
Aquaterra Spectrum (older 14 foot boat)
Necky Jive (whitewater)

I've had the Spectrum for years and it is a great all around boat. Stable, yet pretty quick. I got the Tempest last year and love it. Using my Werner Corryvrecken paddle, I can move.

Just 2 boats: Primary boat is modified (their hull design, my deck and cockpit) CLC Patuxent 17, stitch-and-glue plywood, built from plans in 1995. Winter boat is the old 1984 Dirigo 17, glass. Very beamy and stable for icy winter water conditions. Both models are long extinct, but they continue to suit me just fine.

We have two Perception Carolina rotomolded single boats and a Northwest Kayaks Seascape Expedition double.

John and Doug in the double

Just this past Sunday we took the boats through the Ballard Locks, which was quite the fun experience - especially for the three-year old!

A great thing about kayaking along the Lake Washington Ship Canal is the opportunity to see the celebrity fishing boats featured on the Discovery Channel's show "Deadliest Catch".

We always see the Northwestern and the Wizard in the Ship Canal, and often see others featured on the show as well.

Hi,

I'm new here and just wanted to say hello.

I have two boats purchased this year. The first is a Wilderness Systems Tsunami 125 and the second is a Hurricane Aquasports Tracer 165. Both boats are totally different animals but give me a nice range in paddling choices.I'm still learning each boats pros and cons so you might say I've been challenged a bit. It's definately been fun and I look forward to gaining more experience with my new obsession.

Gary

I picked up a Wilderness Systems Tsunami 120 just over a month ago. So far I love it. When I went on a guided tour a week ago she asked the length of my kayak. 12 feet I said. I started to wonder if I should have picked up something slightly longer but after some discussion I felt like I had made the correct choice. Anyway, I love it. I feel comfortable. I feel like I can explore a wide range of possibilities with this kayak.

I've now upgraded to an Eddyline Nighthawk 16. What an amazing boat! The Hurricane Tracer was nice but this one just feels better. The improved tracking and speed really sets it apart. The construction and attention to detail is far better but you pay more for that. I'm thrilled with my NH in every way.
