1st Runner-Up Kayak:  Dan Thaler's Petrel
2nd Runner-Up Kayak:  Tom Suppan's Night Heron Hybrid
Best SUP:  Lance Proctor's self-design strip-planked SUPs
Best Laszlo:  Laszlo

Well, I'm not suprised to see Laszlo won for "Best Laszlo". Next year my goal is to take away that title from him. It's gonna be tough, but I'll definitely give it a shot!

   Did Laszlo make his sign or did CLC?  He certainly is a big proponant of CLC and a great resource.

There are some great looking craft in the photos.  Now if my shoulder will ever heal maybe I can get back on the water.

Laszlo's sign was handcrafted by robots.
