	I just recieved my new 2008 JK Rocker yesterday and took it for a spin on the White Salmon. It is a yellow cosmetic blem straight from the factory. This is my first new boat purchase in over 7 years. I was lured by the xlinked plastic that is rumored to actually hold up well unlike most new boats out on the market these days. Thank you Eric and everyone at Jackson Kayaks for a very intelligently designed creeker. I think one of the most innovative design features is the placement of attachment points for throwbags, cameras, and safety gear. The four attachment points all just under the cockpit rim make grabbing safety gear SOOO much easier and quicker than any boat I have been in. We will see how it hold up to a winter of Washington creeking. Basalt seems to be so hard on boats. Thanks JK Jason
