The christening of Serenity

My little brother Nathan built a kayak and I was lucky enough to be here for the christening and maiden voyage this morning.

Getting it off the car.

He decided to name the kayak Serenity. My brother is a geek. Wonder where he gets it from.

In the water for the first time.

Christening it with ginger ale (because we had no champagne bottles to break over the side) and saying the christening prayer that Nathan found online: "Please float please float please float please float..."

The maiden voyage.
It floats!!!


After Nathan established that it wasn't going to sink, the rest of us took rides. I was impressed at how well it handled.
