I am not trying to regain my youth but would sure like to slow the clock. My wife incouraged me to order an AI for my 50th birthday and the AI should arrive in a few weeks. This board as been an inspiration and a big part of giving me the confidence to order the craft without trying one.
I am exited and can not wait for the water to soften up. I will be sailing primarily at Okoboji, IA.
Paul AI - You have good reason to be excited
Your fiftieth birthday is a momentous occasion and deserves to be celebrated in a memorable way.
I can think of no better present than this fantastic do-everything watercraft
You are very lucky to have a wife who is encouraging you to buy one!!
I would not be surprised to learn that you buy her one for a similarly significant occasion.
My wife (Minnie) was not so enthusiastic about the idea of me buying one for my sixtieth birthday, however now that I have had it for a couple of months and have had so many adventures etc, I don't think she begrudges me regaining the joy of life that the AI offers. I haven't been able to talk her into one yet, but I think she would be a serious contender for the pillion seat in a tandem AI when it is released. (She likes riding pillion on my Honda Goldwing).
