We're still waiting for our TI to arrive, but couldn't resist getting out on the water with our Sport and Outback for the first time of the season yesterday. Pix are here: http://gallery.me.com/zeissler/

I must say that using a trailer greatly simplifies kayaking for us!

Mitch;

Hope your day on the water was good! Denise and I had a great ride today on our new TI Boy are they fast. We have Outbacks that we sail and really love the Tandem. Hope yours gets to you fast.

Larry, you're killing me with vids like that! Sure looks fun!

Our TI could arrive anytime within the next three weeks or so. In the meantime, we'll continue to get stamina built back up for the Mirage drives.

Ditto.
Going nuts waiting - I would have thought it would be here by now. Boo!
But, in the meantime, keep posting reviews, thoughts, pic and videos and all things related to the TI.

Mitch and Mark;

I am sorry that your tandems aren’t in yet. But We are having fun with ours.

I went to my dealer today and he has a TI for sale - not spoken for. It is the Red Hibiscus color. Just waiting for someone to buy it. He offers $100 off list plus no freight charge if picked up at his facility in Benton Harbor, MI.

Just talked to our local Hobie dealer. The first batch of 10 TI's has been delivered to him and 7 have been distributed to the respective buyers so far.

We're number 12 on the list and he says that Hobie is going to ship the second batch at the beginning of next week, with delivery to us sometime by the following week. So that makes our potential delivery window sometime during the week of June 7th. Can hardly wait!
