Hi Night Wing. Top photo is of a SIC Recon 11 11. It really was not on my radar but while looking at others, I found it. B grade, 3-4 lbs overweight. Less than $650. Brand new. Are you kidding me? No brainer.  Hell, it ain't that heavy.
I had heard of it and how fun it was and it had caught my eye but with what I do, where I paddle, and other boards I alrerady have it never really turned my head so to say but at that price I had to. I like it a lot and am looking forward to when the power boats are out in force to play on some.
Green board is a JL Mission. That one I have wanted for years. Finally a deal came along I could not refuse. I have only had it out a couple times and will write up something on it after another time or few. I am in love with it and it seems to be everything I wanted and hoped for even as far inland as I am. It is making me look again at the M14 tho a custom Hammer is calling my name a bit louder every time I turn around.
The other thing is a Hobie I 11s. It is my wifes. I still have not rode it but most definitely will. May turned very ugly and the switch for summer just got flipped a week or so ago so with that and other things am a little behind on being out. I see the Hobie stand up pedal thing as something for fun for the afternoon and this one as something to bring home to meet the family. It is going to be lots of fun and she will use it all the time. Perhaps it will be the stepping stone to paddling a board I am hoping.
Here's a couple more.

Thanks for posting more photos and telling me what models they are. Ditto for sharing your thoughts as well. Since I'm new to supping, I soak up every bit of knowledge and info as I can.

The view from 9,500 in Wyoming.  The wind was brutal all day and we just did a lot of driving and exploring until about 6.  We set up camp in the trees and lake was still showing whitecaps.  Right after this was taken we went out for leisurely 45 minute paddle as the winds died down completely to watch a great sunset (forest fire 30 miles south and west) and watch the trout rise all around us until dark.

Nice looking paddling place you got there. I imagine the photo of it doesn't do it justice. Must be spectacular in person.

Thanks for sharing it.

New to the forum and SUP, just trying to get my bearings.
We live outside of Savannah and have some really cool creeks and rivers to enjoy.
These pics are from one of our favorites (so far) and it is Ebeneezer Creek in Effingham County, Georgia

I just came back from a camping trip from Lake Durant in the Adirondacks. I didn't SUP here, but I paddled a canoe with my wife and two daughters. My son was alongside in my kayak. We saw loons, hummingbirds, ravens, and hawks on the trip. One night, we were woken up by barred owls screeching and hooting above our tent!

@Ichabod Spoonbill

When I take my Hobie on an overnight camping/fishing trip, some of the animals I might see are: turtles, snakes (rat, cottonmouth, copperhead), a wayward seagull, cormorants, whitetail deer, (bobcat at night), owls (screech, barn, great horned), hawks (kestrel, red shoulder, red tailed), robins, squirrels (fox, gray), alligators, armadillos and possums. Just depends on what I come across.

BTW, thanks for posting the scenic photo.

My favorite so far is the Weeki Wachee River.  The warm crystal clear water, the surrounding vegetation, the manatees...great stuff. 



I can't wait until next summer when I can get back there.

Other cool sights from this summer....

This is the Ravenal Bridge between Charleston and Mt. Pleasant, SC.  That freighter passing under the bridge was flippin huge, really showing how gigantic and tall the bridge is.





This is the Folly River/Tidal Flats area near Folly Beach, SC.  And this shot shows a little dolphin friend I met.  :)



This is downtown Tampa from the Hillsborough River.

A great set of photos. That dolphin picture is my favorite from the ones you shared.

Thanks for taking the time to post all of them.
