I haven't paddled my kayak in forever. I think since I got my canoe, I haven't actually gotten into my kayak. I wondered how it felt to paddle and decided to go out today to find out. I went to the Musky. It was a warm, still day. When I got to the musky, the entry was so overgrown with weeds I almost didn't think I could launch but there was a path and I paddle out. I was surprised how fast the kayak went compared to my canoe. As luck would have it, the first stretch in the "lake" and the weeds, the wind picked up a bit. No problem for the yak. I made it up to the upper lake in record time and only had to get out once to walk it up the riffles. It was still pretty shallow.
All in all it was a very enjoyable day. I still think I like the canoe better but it was fun, more than I expected it to be, to paddle the kayak.
