    ducksterman,
    I stand corrected. The Day Tripper I saw, didn't have the fins or the pump included.
    My Bad.

    Joe you should have doubled you money on that Lami. You gave it away.
    I have a feeling when you get the funds, another Lami is in the works.

    Joe you have GOT to see my Toon setup. I fabricated a 12 inch pneumatic wheel for the back of my toon. It attaches to the motor mount. With the footrests used as kind of wheelbarrow handles the whole thing wheels around just like a wheelbarrow.

    As you know I get around not nearly as well as you and I can load the toon up with tons of gear and wheel it anywhere a tube can go. In fact easier than packing a tube cause I have the stability of the wheelbarrowtoon* . I have wheeled it thru mud, sand, rock, slopes and marshy ground. The wheel and tire cost me $25 and $4.00 for an axel. Its attached to the motor mount with two wingnuts. takes only a couple minutes to put on and take off.

    *Wheelbarrowtoon <----- a new word I just invented.
    For God's sake, Don't Quote me! I'm Probably making this crap up!

    Mine has a mount built in for the wheel, and they sell the wheel, but so far I haven't need one.

    I've gone with the Caddis Navigator II. It's a big tube with a weight capacity of 350 pounds. It looks big enough to float a Volkswagen. I think it will not only be comfortable but it will float me quite adequately. I'm not crazy about the valve systems, but once I get used to setting it up I think I'll be happy with it. Here's a link, scroll down;

    Now I need to take it fishing.....
