Best comment ever!

Right on!

I've been wanting to try an epic v-10 sport on a downwind day just like the one described in these posts. I paddled one at Grand Marais GLSKS and loved it. The V10 was a little tender for me at this stage I could paddle it, but not with confidence, but the V10 was very doable.

Are you paddling the Great Lakes on A SurfSki on windy days? I'd love to film it if not try it!

Hmmm. Dragging the paddle and edging left. . . why not ditch the Brit boat, get a surfski, steer left and keep paddling. You'll be there in half the time.

Hmmm. I think at this point I'm stern ruddering and edging the other way, towards shore. This looks like the "1 out of 3" degrees of edging, otherwise known as the Jeff Allen "farting on a bar stool" degree of edging.

Thanks for the pic!
