Today, October 23, 2013, I took my Shearwater Sport for her first paddle at Turtle Beach, Siesta Key, Sarasota, FL. It was a windy day so I had some good chop in the bay in which to play. The boat handles and paddles just like a dream...I'm truly happy.
I learned enough during this build to know that this will NOT be the last boat I build from CLC...it was so fun, so challenging, and so rewarding to see her come together and make it to the water within a month of taking delivery of the kit.
Thank you John and everyone at CLC...your products are wonderful...your support is beyond wonderful!!!
