Buzzy's work: Lasciate ogne speranza, voi ch'intrate - Tiki Carving

They're also unstable and usually pulled from the water if it gets choppy. (totally flat rivers are the preferred medium) They use an outrigger-style of gunwall to hold the oars on, though, but it doesn't touch the water so it makes them MORE unstable. Outriggers are heavy, impervious to most ocean conditions, and can cut a 'shell' in two if they hit it broadside. Hey, I think the US Olympic Rowing Team practices here in San Diego, and there are outrigger clubs in Coronado. Buzz, I worked on yer logo a bit yesterday. It needs some more work. I've got a can of "Jacobean" dark stain if you want to try it. It looks real black antique-ish.
