AI

I'm waiting for my new Adventure Island...I saw Kevin Nakada from Hobie, fishing and hooping from a couple of Tandem Islands on a TV show and they looked like fun!
I used to sail a small Sabot type boat when I was a kid, so I tried the AI this Fall down in Newport and WOW...what fun and super easy to sail !
They are really stable and the self furling of the sail makes it so simple...a little bit of setup time to get the yak ready, but well worth it.
Can't wait to fish and hoop from it.
When tacking, you can peddle the Mirage Drive and really scoot through the turns.
I'll post some photos as soon as i get it and she gets on the water.
