Found this lying on the side of our club so got someone to fund fixing it up. Heres some pictures of us paddling it today. I’ll post a few of it before when I can find the pics on my computer. This was our first run in the water and we are trying to find how to set up the ama so that we can make up some decent Iakos for it.

The hull seem to be narrow. NI’m not sure this V3 would be easy to surf… nb1376, if you paddle it in the surf could you tell us how it handles ?

I’m heading up to Sacramento tomorrow for worlds but when I get back first thing on my list is get that thing outside the harbor. Hopefully I’ll be able to get some pics and I’ll let you all know how it runs.
