Hobie Mirage

Last Tuesday Suzette and I went Kayaking with Mel and his friends. They all have Hobie Mirage kayaks. I had wanted to try one since I first saw one at a dealer in Vermont last year. Mel gave me my chance. Wow what fun, and I was using an 10 or 15 year old model. That Mirage hydro drive really works. You can see pictures here. The wind on Lake Anna was quite stiff and I was able to get the kayak to surf on the waves.

Suzette was using her Manatee kayak and was having a hard time keeping up. She said she felt like a pickup truck in a bunch of Porsche's. We had a good time and were invited back this week.

Thanks Mel.
