Aquanfest 2008








Congratulations go to Vince Pao, owner of Aquan Sports for hosting Aquanfest 2008. It was a great event blessed with good weather and an excellent number of attendees for this inaugural event. With an emphasis on introducing new paddlers to the sport the location on a sheletered lagoon in Foster City was perfect.




I want to thank Randy Kneeland who gave up his Saturday to help me with my booth. He owns a Valley Avocet and a Kokatat dry suit and is a great advocate for both brands. He also 'volunteered' to race the Rapier 18 in the fun race and did really well considering it was his first time in a race and in a racing kayak.


I also want to thank Galen Licht who helped me out on both days. He also easily won the sea kayak class racing the Rapier 20.







My treat for Father's Day was to go kayaking for the first time with Gina and Shea Bella. The picture says it all.

Life doesn't get any better!
