“ ED! We're back from AZ and looking forward to seeing you out there! Met a guy on Watson Lake who had a boat like yours - handmade, wood, nice...only a one person, though. SHOUT!
Oh yeah - Ed's a good guy. :) ”

“ Ed's a great guy to hang out with. He braved the big waves with Tom and I on Lake Michigan, and he built the most beautiful kayak I have ever seen! He also braved Pakistani food with us. He's an adventurer through and through. Ed, we're glad to have you part of our group! ”

“ Ed is a great instructor and guy! He helped several new paddlers by not only letting them paddle in his amazing home-made boat, but took the time give them lots of instruction for a fun and successful trip. He even even avoided those drunken fishmen on those motor boats falling into the water! ”
