The following pictures were taken by Bob Stuart at Yreka, California, at Lake Siskyiou during the IHPVA World Championships. With a strong pedaler and a strong paddler, Dakanu was clocked at about 6 knots over a 100 meter course.

Another person (Yuya, an xchange student from Japan) being taken for a ride

In the bow is Yuya Inoe, a Japanese foreign exchange student who was staying with us that summer. In the center is Christopher, and I am in the stern.

At one corner of the lake people were swinging out over the water from a very long rope, and dropping into the drink.
