I was able to get a women's Kokotat PFD from Sierra Trading Post and like its fit. You might want to try it on elsewhere first, though return shipping is free.

Beautiful day for a paddle. Got off a bit late and tide was going out at my start. Didn't make Willow Street. An egret took off as I approached. I had no idea how great their wingspan was. Also saw swallows unknown type. Of 9 paddlers I saw, only one had on a PFD! Am getting used to my new boat. I g...

Re: Skills 8/16/2012

Plan to be there. Did a clinic with Archee a few weeks ago. There were 2 of us and 2 instructors. Had fun and learned a lot. Have a new skirt, and would love to try other boats. When I get better and learn to roll will want a longer boat to tame your islands.

Have gotten a skirt and done the wet exit practice. Not done solo reentry but done several assisted reentries. Might not do the surfing but those who were at Hingham end of june for thursday paddle, can I come? Also, need to borrow a helmet, if possible.
