Yep, thought a LOT about it. I need more time on the water with it to build up the confidence in it's capabilities & establish the range I can get with 25 gallons. Was thinking about getting a mini-x or two for that purpose. Also, also, wanted to use it for support for those looking to paddle the crossing.

I just can't justify paying to store it somewhere.

No pics to show, but over the years I've had a few 12' Aluminum skiffs.

Also, at one point in my life I built fiberglass boats, here in San Diego.

Stringari Skiffs

A lot of work goes into a Custom boat. Of course, the best day of work was when the boss said we have a prospective customer coming in today and we're taking them fishing. Load up the boat!

He had a "spot" and we'd take the customer out and let them fish. We NEVER came back without a couple Mako, which he filleted, ziplock full of Italian Dressing, fresh garlic cloves, and bbq'd them. A few beers and freshly caught/cooked Mako, and it usually sealed the deal !
