    I have a fly I call Halford's Ghost (a miniature diving wiggling fly rod Rapala) because Halford would roll over in his grave if he ever got sight of it. He--as the undisputed heavy weight champion snooty purist of all time--is my natural born spiritual adversary. I'll have to think about that one. Halford's....comeupance?

    I have read that the most common name for leisure boats is "Obsession".

    Boats are often also called "Money Pits. However, this boat is obviously a Sandy Pitt.

    Very cool. To me it looks like The Hot Rod Dory.

    It is a shame you do not live closer because I have a Hobie Cat 75 that I would make you a great deal on. No pump needed. I have not used it in over 3 years since purchasing my NuCanoe and now have a NuCanoe Frontier 12 that I love.

    Someone above asked: "tell us how it performs." I posted the following on Google+ a few minutes ago:

    I rowed it today. Man. What a boat. I've got four other (bigger) models developed over the past 30 years: Sharptail, Buffalo Boat, Beavertail and Honky Dory. All are well received and well respected in the drift boat community. But this is the hottest little water skipper out there. Have you ever rowed a little one-man pontoon boat? They're handy but dog slow and toilet paper scary in big water. This thing rows double circles around a pontoon. Bigger oars. Wider bottom. Ten times more flotation. Holds spins and moves where ever you want it. I need to stop talking. But I haven't been this reved up in years. This a hot rod little boat.
