Deason saved his money all summer and used it to buy a kayak. He got a sit on top ocean kayak, mainly because he can jump off of it and it won't tip over (supposedly). It is also self bailing and will not sink. All that tip money, and money from the swear jar finally went to good use.
We got a regular kayak with a cockpit so Dahlia can ride with us, both kayaks are short and light. They are both about 9ft long and weigh approx. 40lbs each, Deason can almost carry his own kayak. Which is pretty amazing considering he only weighs about 65lbs.
Meanwhile, we have been prepping Dahlia for her watches on the way down. She will happily look through the binoculars all day long, we are just not entirely sure if she is trust worthy enough to stay awake for a midnight watch....maybe a few more years!
