CM- You obviously DON'T get it. Go back and re-read the thread (or, read it for the first time as it seems you haven't) and maybe you will comprehend. Otherwise, will you just STOP! As Christine said, let us get back to the intended topic. PLEASE!!!

you dont either, the first post was about giving you ladies a class to compete in to win prizes for your self. top 3 individual ladies get, what do you know prizes! that would be the only reason i see for changing teams in a fund raising event.

It's only been about increasing female participation. So, STOP!

It's not fair that you edit or delete your posts after someone has responded to them.

Go troll somewhere else.

I'm saying I know more then one female boater better then I. From my perspective we are on the same level. For 99.99 percent of men there are women who are their equals or betters. It is just the ulta-elite men that totally dominate. How many guys can honestly say they don't know or know of a woman that couldn't at least compete? I haven't taken a poll but I don't think it would be a large portion of the population.

I think it's a very cool idea too have an all womans event and teams. I love too see woman out there together with no probe, rope gun ect getting after it.

Woman are not on the same playing field as men when it comes to kayaking as they have a survival mech and are smarter than men when it comes to survival and hucking themselves. So Bad, let the girls play and relax about your profiling issues. I woman team wouldn't have a good chance of being in the top 3.

I think it would be awesome to be sitting in an eddy and 4 chics just paddle by without saying a word. Like said above, the girls need to represent and hanging with us, they can only take so much.

Good Luck ladies
Gary

Okay Badazws6, since you still think we are on the same level, when was the last time you had to take a whole week off boating just because your mestrual cramps were too bad to get in a boat? Oh, this happens to you every month? Then I guess we are almost on the same level.

Just did a brain-storm, and I could name 1 female class V boater I know, and 89 male class V boaters.

On a happy warm fuzzy note...we have gotten enough interest in the Womens division and are in the process of developing the changes for it

Next year i'd like to get a Junior division going if we can rally the youth
