Tim Niemier grew up in Malibu among the surfing legends and pioneering watermen who defined this California lifestyle. But Tim chose a different path when he converted a surfboard into his first sit-on-top kayak. The first time Tim ventured into the waves, the ocean stole his soul and never gave it back. Tim struggled with attention deficit disorder long before it was defined, but used it to his advantage. Against overwhelming odds, he used the power of A.D.D. to combine his passions for art and water sports into designs for kinetic kayak sculptures. People have said, "Today, there are more boats and boards on this earth designed by Tim Niemier than anyone else in history." He introduced the sit on top kayak to the world and started Ocean Kayak Inc., which became a multi-million dollar business that transformed paddlesports from an elite expert sport into a recreational activity almost anyone could enjoy. This is the story of Tim Niemier and his audacious dream of "getting a billion butts on boats and boards" by creating simple water-friendly designs for everyone.

While reading this book, I truly felt like I was sitting with the author, listening to his life story. The writing style is authentic and you can tell that the words were crafted from the same hands that have sculpted boats, paddled new courses, and touched the lives of many. There are off beat words of wisdom such as ‘Life is a game, the object of which is to learn the object’ and there are stories of growing up in a middle class lifestyle in Malibu in the 1970’s. The author was a scrapper who lived on a shoestring budget and hung out with common people you might meet in your everyday life. Yet he followed his bliss, took some chances, and wound up changing an industry. Niemier also reflects on Carl Jung’s archetypes of the King, Warrior, Lover and Magician – or in his terms Visionary, Hunter, Dreamer and Craftsman, to describe his personal qualities and how his ADD has affected his life. Excellent read and well worth the time!
