Rodger, looks like a great time with the family!

Surely you didn't take one picture of your boat on the trip?

We must not be too far apart, lake michigan will be our home waters as soon
as a slip opens up.
At which point I will send the trailer in for a beefier axle and other
work.

Do you tow/stow the kayaks on the r22?
