Nice to here from you Ross. I still have your Wind in My Soul video and  have 
shown it to quite a few people and gotten rave reviews. Hope to try the  
Hobie kayak one of these days and may take you up on your offer.

Hi  steve,

I've been using Hobie's pedal-powered device for many years and  love it.

Keeps hands free for fishing, photography, whatever.

No  zig-zag-wig-wag wasted motion.


My two strong sons challenged their  old man to a race. They were both  
in one canoe paddling hard. I won  hands down and hands up. Leg Power  
or should I say "Duck  Power."

As you likely know, the leg motion is unlike the circular  motion used  
with bikes. It is a slightly modified forward and back  pattern with  
simple adjustment for a range of leg  lengths.

Down side? Mostly clearance problems in shallow or rocky  waters. Oh,  
and no reverse! Best to keep a paddle on board for both  such situations.

When a bolt froze due to galvanic reaction (of two  dissimilar metals)  
The nice folks at Hobbie sent a new kayak  free!

We're in Pound Ride, NY. Try it out anytime you wish. Call 914  7644270  
re ice-on-pond matters or for more  info.

Ross
