Inaugural NCC2009

Just returned from the inaugural WaterTribe North Carolina Challenge--more to come on that.

I didn't padde, though took all the gear, just in case. Still getting over a rather bad cold and didn't want to make it worse. Hard move.

But the photo above, taken by Doug-from-just-up-the-road sums up the true WaterTribe spirit. It took JarHead 90 minutes to get off the beach at the race start, but Marines *never* give up.

That craft has a nice traditional look to her.

Hi Kristen!

Glad to find a fellow kayaker and blogger in Durham! Would love to get some tips from you on what to look for in a sea kayak. I currently own a tandem Mainstream Escapade, but am starting research on the sport of sea kayaking - possible new boat purchase in 2010! :-)

Are you still actively blogging here? No entries for 2 months? No replies to readers' comments?
