Well in my defence.... i was able to adjust the rudder for my copilot's lack of directional instinct ...... ie: NO ... your other LEFT ! (But she did pack the cooler bag) Tomorrow we tackle the might River Inhabitants out to the the North Atlantic! (Weather permitting). A few "baby lemonades"?

This was our initial test run with the single/tandem, modular, three-piece Zest Kayak, Canadian made. Our full review will be posted soon at YouTube/Boondocking with Dogs. Most obvious issue at first is no drink holder and an assembly quality issue with one set of pedals …. Full review to follow.
