Hi,

We are at the stage of throwing everything at our twins to see what they like, and we just started to get serious about kayaking (rec/touring), and by getting serous I mean buying all the crap.

I kayaked and canoed quite a few times as a kid and loved it, and whenever I get the chance I love to kayak around a lake or down a stream. I find it one of the most relaxing things there is to do; no demands, no phones, no rush hour, just peace and nature.

I just picked up a Necky Manitou II (tandem) used and I have a new one on order so we can take the family of four out. The nice thing about this one is the rear seat moves forward so you can use it as a one man kayak.

I just picked up a rack for the pepper but was a little concerned with hauling two kayaks up there, but I see a lot of people doing it. The rack sure makes noise at speed though.

I just wanted to see if anyone else has the bug, and any good info, tricks, funny stories to share would be cool.

I'll post a picture of the pepper fully loaded when I get it all setup.

Cheers
