      Nice vid.... I suppose that if the boat was damaged by the Goose there are some poeple who would be complaining the AQ had a poor design as it wouldn't be "wild life" proof.

              Is that a turtle that keeps popping up to check out the action? Looks like something pops up, then goes back down several times...Nessie?!?

                      Did anyone notice the Goose in the grass just behind the UL-1? Thats probably his mate and he's protecting the nest.

                          Good eyes

                          Yip that is a female goose he is protecting while she is sitting on her nest...I didn't notice her till I saw the video too. We don't have gators that I know of in this little pond but do have a lot of huge fish (bass & carp) and turtles that have pulled under a Nirvana sailboat before.

                          That was one in the video that kept popping it's head up to see what all the commotion was about.

                          You have to run a pop up rudder in this pond or risk tearing out the transom. I've already hit one with my new shovelnose.
