Reader Christian Oliver writes: I was lucky enough to attend the Cedar Key Small Boat Meet in 2019 and enjoy the island before hurricane Helene with my Michalak Piccup Pram. I can confirm that the design works as intended. I did not need a trailer she was transported in the bed of my pickup truck and wheeled around on a kayak dolly. With a hitch extension you can tow a small teardrop trailer as well. This was a fun setup!

I’ve been daydreaming about sailing in Poland, and Maciek Szymański’s photo below only makes me want to visit more. He writes:

Josh! I’m sending you a photo from our three day trip up the Narew river this spring. We sailed (on sails) with my wife on our Corvus Cornix, the 17 ft Klepper FAM from Zegrze lake near Warsaw and back. The photo was taken at the furthest point of our trip. The analog photo was taken on the B&W slide Fomapan R100.
