Sonny Salomon snapped this picture of me doing some surfing on the Caney Fork River in Rock Island State Park near McMinnville, Tennessee. The year is 1998.
I no longer have the boat in this picture. It was stolen eight years ago. But last year I got my hands on one that's the same make and model, and that's the boat I've been messing around in on the riverfront in the last couple of weeks. I've always liked the design: it's reasonably stable, surfs well, and is a decent general-purpose river-running boat. I reckon it'll be the boat I use in the Grand Canyon next year, unless I stumble across something that I like even better.
