Well, my nephew with whom I built a night heron hyrbid was home for the holiday from university....and it was about 60 degrees here so we finally did it....and took his new boat for its first paddle.
i was delighted that he kept it upright and had a great time....and enjoyed a late afternoon out on the Potomac....truly a wonderful day.
and then a little moon rise before we headed in at sunset
h
and one more.
keep padding :)
That is what this is all about. Putting yourself or one that you love on the water in a thing of beauty! Congrats.
As Water Rat said to Mole, "Believe me, my young friend, there is nothing–absolutely nothing–half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats.”

I wish you all joy of such a lovely boat and the lovely venue for messing about. <;-)
