Birthday present

So ... after lugging around a 41+ lb boat during practice yesterday, my wife purchased me a new lightweight surfski for my birthday!! She bought me a second hand 'Think Legend'. It is a nice boat, fast in the shallows, good in the deep water and it's *only* 26 lbs! It should be a great companion for the 90-miler!

We drove all night to pick it up ...

I had it for a short session. I notice a few things about the boat: (1) it is *very* stable, (2) at speed, it has slightly less glide [or is slightly more 'draggy'] compared to my fenn mako6, this maybe a result of the horribly shaped rudder? or the flattish bottom? The jury is still out. (3) it is the *most* comfortable cockpit ever built into a ski - I can rotate, (4) it planes out well in shallows, but bogs hard in suckwater.

I wonder what the Think Uno is like ... Mmmm ... now that might be fun!
