Suenami!

Post by pat »

On Saturday, I borrowed Chip's yak and took Sue out for a paddle on our pond with her in my Tsunami. After about an hour, she seemed to be enjoying herself, so I asked her, "Wadyathink?" She answered, "Is Billington Sea Kayak still open?"

Turns out she was serious. I'd been talking with Joel over at BSK and knew that they had the Tsunami in Mangy (sorry, I mean Mango), Yellow, Red, Ice and Mystic Blue. Sue said she wanted RED, and what if someone was over at BSK buying HER kayak right now?? I told her that chances of them selling that one red Tsunami were pretty slim, and it was 15 minutes until they close (we're still out in the middle of the pond, mind you).

So we arrived at BSK first thing next morning (10 min before they opened) to find out that they'd sold the red one as they closed last night. Sue was pretty heartbroken at this. So I did a little calling around and found that EMS in Hingham had ONE Tsunami left. It was red and had a rudder. AND he was willing to match Doug's low price. I'd much rather have given my business to Doug, but the heart wants what the heart wants.

So today we took it on its maiden voyage. We launched in Hanover and paddled down to the North River, turning around at the Washington Street Bridge.
