   So what is everyone hoping that Santa will bring them this year? I think I have been good enough to get a new life jacket and maybe some better running lights. And if I've been really really good, a much better after market seat for my Hobie TI.

   And for you?

   Kayalu R25/Tektite Mark III light for night time navigation. Looking forward to the 200 hours of battery life. One less thing to worry about during the EC.

   I will be adding floation so it doesn't suffer the same fate as the previous one

   Here's what I aksed for:

   PLB, SPOT-3, ACR C-Strobe, VHF/DSC handheld radio

   Solquist Torrent paddle jacket, Solquist Paddle pants, Gortex sox (my feet are too long to wear anything but sox in the kayak), NRS Hydroskin 0.5mm shorts.

   NRS C-Tug Kayak Cart, Kayalu Kayaklite, Garmin Bluechart G2 chipGarmin Bluechart G2 chip

   I doubt I'll get anything on the top line because my wife and daughter are technology challenged and will most certainly mentally lock-up when they try and read about these...they are both artists.

   I doubt I'll get anything on the second line, either.  Except for the jacket, everything else comes in Black or Black and since my wife and daughter are artists, everything MUST color-match or color coordinate...go figure...LOL.  The way I explained it is, "since my legs are inside the kayak, who cares what color they are?  It will be dark when I get in the kayak and it will be dark when I get out....

   I'm hoping for the third line because it everything is spelled out and leaves nothing to the imagination and doesn't need to be color coordinated.  Well see what Santa brings me.  Who knows, Santa may get tired of teh whole thing and decide to bring me a sweater and tie instead...

   Wingkeel, we have more than one artist in my family as well, so try this:

   Take a picture of the item, its SKU/tag/label and the storefront itself (or catalog) where the item is found.  Give to Santa all printed pictures and a printed Google map, if necessary, then hope you get a gift card to use at a shop that sells something you can use on your watercraft of choice.

   Merry Christmas!

   Wingkeel, http://www.nrs.com/product/159313/c-tug-boat-cart-with-solid-kiwi-wheels-closeout

   The C-Tug cart is on sale at NRS for $150. JUST MAKE SURE YOU GET THE solid "KIWI" WHEELS. The pneumatic wheels were problematic for me. Although you can buy spare tubes from Harbor Freight for the C-Tug pneumatic wheels.

   Awesome cart that breaks own into tiny pieces and holds up very well to heavy loads.

   SPOT3--free upgrade (100% rebate) w/activation.  Yeah but I have to wait for the prepaid VISA card!

   Cooke Custom Sewing 60L barrel pack and Hybrid Guide Pack!!!  Awesome BWCA/Quetico gear!!
