So how long is an 18 foot Sit on Top?  Pretty damn long. As you can see from the images it is not short.  I made sure to tie off a red rag off the stern so as not to get pulled over. 

I shot these before we went to Wildcat lake for late afternoon paddle.  Over all the boat is easy to load and unload. but the problem being that the rudder doesn't retract. On a soft sandy beach, not an issue.  but for the rocky ones, or concrete boat launches, they offer problems.  You put the yak in the water stern first, I found works best.    Sorry no on the water images. I can see myself launching my phone while on the water.  I will work to do something better for images.

That is a sweet kayak.  That thing will move I bet with that long waterline.

That waterline does look wicked. I see you're rocking the old Tacoma, I like your style.

The old Taco is now 25, only 5 to go and she qualifies for Antique plates. I think she will have no issues getting there.
