Did you bring them home, or was it catch and release? If I'd have known you were going to ICAST Jim, I might have made the trip.

Catch and Release...!
It's a protected species at my house! LOL!
I brought some HUMID Florida weather back to share with my Southern California brothers.

Promar/AHI was right across the aisle from Morgan and Kevin in the Hobie booth...always lots of cools stuff to see.
I couldn't believe that the Eddyline kayak won best boat in the show. I didn't see any innovation in the design or outfitting other than the fiberglass like finish. The new motor in the Wilderness yak was a better new design in my opinion.

Can't believe you didn't bend the rules, just this once Jim.

Could Wilderness exhibit the Power Pod in the New Boat category? I'm thinking not. They had a boat to package it with, but it was a last minute scratch. The same happened with Jackson. I think it played to Eddyline's advantage. Also, don't knock visual appeal. This is a popularity contest. Ultimately, I expected them to win due to the YakAttack edition outfitting, although the C135's real advantage is its relatively light weight (70 pounds) for its size.
