  • what WAS that cat THINKing?! HAHAHAA - oooh boy - glad you saved THAT shot for the END! lol

  • That is one of my all-time favorite tubing pictures!

  • To be precise about kite tubing: it is prohibited on any body of water controlled by the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers, and in certain states and counties. However, many areas have no ban; for example, it is allowed on many lakes maintained by King County, Washington.

    If you have any doubts, find out who maintains the lake or river in question and ask. There is much confusion on this issue; I have heard misinformation from other people on the water, and even from boat and marine dealers.

  • And remember, while it is true that the Wego has been recalled and was the subject of a CPSC memo, its cousin the Manta Ray (by Sevylor; also rebranded as the Raptor Blaster by West Marine) was never recalled. It is no longer made, but that is because Sevylor was sold to another company who chose not to continue making the product. Manta Rays are plentiful on eBay.

  • Thanks for the extra information on both products.

  • We just noticed an editing blunder in this episode. In our feature on Adrian Flanagan's Alpha Global Expedition, we used a photo of his boat, "Barabas"--but his boat was NOT the trawler in the forefront of the shot (that we mistakenly zoomed in on). Rather, it was the 40-foot sloop sailing yacht far in the background beneath the crane. We zoomed in on the wrong boat: Our apologies!

    The sound is a little out-of-sync during the opening as well. It gets worked out.
