Okay only been on the water for an hour and didn't put the sail up but I had some fun getting used to things. Had to make a name up for the Ti for my Personal Locator Beacon form - so called it Yellow 3. Not very original but I'm happy with it. One criteria was that it wouldn't sound silly if I have to VHF radio the coastguard (e.g. Yellow Belly calling Coastguard, Yellow Belly calling Coastguard Over... sort of thing).
I took the Ti to a local lake - idea was to assemble it, check all was in order etc. and have a pedalo trip using the Mirage drive.
Getting off trailer - easy. It is heavy but had no probs dropping one end then heaving other to floor.
Trolley to water's edge, firm ground - easy again using C-Tug trolley.
Assembly - easy again. Spend some time putting one Ama on with the back pointing forwards but that was just because I was getting over excited. Took me longer to put my drysuit on.
On the calm part of the lake: Very surprised at how easy to manouvre boat using the paddle (from back seat). Rudder very responsive. Mirage Drive excellent in all respects (easy to click in out). Whole boat felt very large! (I am used to a sea kayak).
On the windy part of the lake (only F3): Soon found myself getting very warm using Mirage Drive (full dry suit) and also realise my legs are unfit (I'm a skinny legged kayaker). VERY pleased to realise that Mirage Drive gives great cardio vascular workout and seems to involve core muscles - that will do me some good. Rudder less responsive turning into wind and you need to start pedalling a little harder to make it happen. I am interested to see how, with no sail, this craft can cope in various wind conditions. Not sure why I'm interested - probably just good to know its limitations in all guises (e.g. sail ripped). With sail and no rudder...? All things to learn as I go along.
Overall first impression pre sail going up: I think "easy" is the dominant word i.e. stress free and intuitive.
Sailing proper next time.

I would never have imagined I would wear one in Australia in February - but there ya go 
The problem was that I knew I would be getting wet and combined with strong wind and a top temp around 20 C I have previously found I feel very cold in a wet suit. So the only option was the drysuit. I must say I MUCH prefer it to the tight restrictive feeling of a wet suit.
