You're gonna LOVE that boat! I've got the same one in yellow and it hauls. Whats odd about the rudder that you mentioned? Glad to see another Wilderness guy out here.

I noticed the fog from the 163 S just before I got on the 52. It looked pretty intense even from that far inland. Nice pics Chris (THE wilderness guy).

No, it is another T-160i, but they did remove scupper holes near the seat, so it is not as "wet," not that bothered me, I wear breathable waders year round... I just decided to get a rudder this year, I was curious on whether it would help, drifting, and esp during the windy days. I was worried about getting my lines crossed and tangled in the rudder yesterday, but that didnt happen, although it was nice conditions out. It has a slight camo pattern within the mold, kind wish it was more camo, but still looks cool... Thanks to Rik of sdkayaks.com for setting up my flush mounts.... all 6 of them...

I saw the new T-120, reminds me of those surf ski's...

The fog deal happened to me and my buddy one time as well. Paddled out with clear blue skies, an hour later we could not see ten feet. Of course, being big-time watermen, we both owned GPS's, which were stored safely at home. We did manage to run into another lost kayaker who did have a GPS, unfortunately, he recently received the unit as a gift and did not calibrate the GPS so we all paddled in circles until the fog lifted.
