Rusty · 02-25-2011, 09:49 PM

Rusty was my nickname since birth. The name must have jinxed me cause I'm a little Rusty (sloppy, goofy and out there) at times, especially on the water at night when I get that "light" buzz going so I can sleep with balloons out, in those arctic conditions we've had lately. I'm also called Russell, Russ, and Russell Andrew is reserved for when my wife is on my case.

Amish Ed · 02-25-2011, 11:09 PM

When I was a deckhand out of Dana Wharf I had a big goatee, a big lifeguard hat and smoked a pipe. Late for work one day and the captain asked if my horse died. After a few minutes of looking blankly at him, he asked if I was Amish. I'm glad that name stuck because I was also Edward Wristbands and Special Ed.

ctfphoto · 10-09-2011, 06:55 PM

It is for my business name, ctfphoto.com

I am a high end professional nature photographer for more than 30 years, (check out my cute baby seal photos,

)

I bought the kayaks to have fun with the family and for photography.

THEN, I found out about Kayak Fishing, well I'm hooked

WahooUSMA · 10-09-2011, 08:21 PM

Shit...I don't even have a yak anymore and I still am addicted to this *&^%ing board!

Kailolo · 10-09-2011, 09:08 PM

I hope Kailolo means water- or ocean-crazy in Hawaiian! I was enamored with Hawaii after our first visit there many years ago. Got to order a new Hono wave decal for the yak.

CheapPelican · 10-09-2011, 11:09 PM

My first kayak was a Pelican Castaway. I bought it on the cheap and rigged it on the cheap. Now I could be called "CheapMalibu"

10-09-2011, 11:38 PM

Mine was an easy choice,My last name is Riskey and water is the place my soul belongs.Surfing ,freediving and kayak fishing .I have never hit the water for the sake of paddling ,the reward is catching fish .Living off the bounty of the ocean .Eat what you catch and feed those that don't !!! Long range kayaking is pure joy ,whether its off shore or covering coastline to the next camp site .Mi amore es la mares !!!

Wow! I checked out the website and your work is awesome! I'm an amateur hobbyist but love the art, and it's nice to come across a photographer/yakker.

HamachiJohn. My name is John, and I love hamachi. It's a very boring name and my wife thinks it's lame and that I should change it. In La Jolla, it may be even more boring with the abundance of YT, but up here in norcal, it's a name to be remembered by...

Bump

A lot of new members. Always curious to hear of their username origins

speedydk · 03-20-2012, 06:30 AM

I used to drive way too fast even did some autocrossing back in the day. For alot of years sport bikes were a passion of mine. I wanted something descriptive of my personality and wanted to have some personal identification with out anouncing my whole name all the time so speedy with my initials became it. So many years ago... Its certainly not because of my paddling speed thats sort of ironic.

Mine originated from the joke:

"What do you call a deer with no eyes? No eye deer (No Idea) What do you call a deer without legs and no eyes? Still no eye deer ( Still no Idea)"

lots funnier when your drunk. So Back in my youngin days I always came up with get rich skims and it always failed. The name of my so called company was "oneyedeer" shorten from "one eye deer" because I believed all it takes to make is one idea. Lol many years later I found out you make money through hard work and a job. Well not that hard but a job is nice
