OC-1 suggestions

Hi guys,

I'm a menehune paddler and weigh around a buck thirty dripping wet.
I was offered to buy a Nai'a Iki, but would like to know what others think about canoes for small paddlers.
A Hurricane? Kaimana?
Thanks for your advice!

Scorpius

Anyone who has paddled a scorpius know how it compares to a pegasus?

Outrigging Holland/ The Netherlands

New OC6 club in Holland. We have an OC6 Mirage and paddle in Haarlem during the winter and on the beach in Zandvoort during the summer. We are organizing new members and are planning set days for paddle sessions. We can be reached at www.bloemendaaloutrigger.nl

Always open to travelling paddlers too.

OC-1 Clubs

In light of the growth of the sport of paddling OC-1 and OC-2, I think it is time for OC-1 and OC-2 Clubs, A place for paddlers that have no desire or time to commit to the OC-6 clubs, A group that they can hang out with and learn from, Shaun Michael is a good example of who these new clubs should be looking for, Brand new to the sport and very eager to learn, Or these new clubs could be an off shoot of the already established OC-6 clubs, A big part of the growth of Triathlon is the "club" aspect. Although Triathlons are an individual sport, Clubs offer them a place to share training, get coached, and find new training partners. I would love to see OC-1 clubs form or at the very least OC-1 divisions within an OC-6 club where there are no expectations for that paddler to be at every practice or race. This is also an opportunity for OC-6 clubs to retain members that are dropping out of the club for OC-1 only paddling.

OC1 Lock

Does anybody have a system for locking thier boats? Need to keep mine in relatively safe area, but unattended. Not so safe anymore somebody is now missing a boat (low end not OC).

My rough design is to cut/join two plastic-coated cables into hoops that slide onto bow & stern but too small to slide over center of hull, then connect the two hoops with a main cable and lock it to a tree or something...

Thoughts?

Thanks!

Shaping OC 1 seat

I have the block of foam to shape the seat and have tried to "wing it" and shape the seat on my own. So far lots of work. I am using a razor to shape the outline and dragon's skin to smoothen it out. Very slow so far. Just wondering if anyone has a faster tool that will work and any advice on how to shape the ideal seat.
