THE SKINNY-WATER FLEET ![]() "Twombly [the second Summer Kyle] went through the water beautifully. Even when the weather blew up hard between the openings [of the inland waterway], the flare of her bow split the waves really well. I couldn't imagine how she could be so stable. I now see the endless possibilities of a shallow water cruiser. As someone who has had long-legged sailboats myself, I realize all the water I've been missing!" Jim Stanek, delivery captain with 30 years experience on all types of vessels.
