Our club is located in New York City and, as you can probably imagine, space for us comes at a serious premium. Because of our space constraints, one of our canoes is stored unrigged. The unrigged canoe is kept on the dock, while the rigged ama and iakos are stored in the boathouse. When crews want to use the canoe they just rig the canoe with quickstraps.

Anyone have an opinions on Tiger canoes and their Kahele model?

so i just got my own oc-1 hurricane, A bit of a beater but its water tight and floats so its good enough for me. ANYWAYS! i usually tend to paddle out of lanikai or areas where theirs no hose readily available. to add to it, i store my boat at A storage place over here that also doesnt have a hose since where i live theirs no room to store my boat and i dont feel safe having it in kalihi anyways....

Does anyone know where to buy a new seat for a Kaku Elua in Southern CA?

I see Huki sells them in Nor CA; anything local?

Sorry gang. Sold!

aloha i am borrowing an oc1 and trying to get insurance on it. called statefarm and atlas insurance and they are rediculously priced and dont have a policy respectively. any ideas? what do you guys use?

I recently bought a Scorpius XM in October and it's a great boat. I've been paddling it for the last month and it runs fast. It catches even small swells so easily and takes off well. I would recommend this boat to anyone. Although I haven't paddled a Pueo, I'm sold on Kai's boats. In addition, Kai and his dad give great customer service!

Does anyone have any unbiased thoughts and info on this boat? A new dealer is selling them for a solid price out here new.

I am looking for a 49-51" single or double bend Makana Ali'i paddle to buy. If anyone is interested in selling theirs, please send me a mail. My address is: trevorg@itst.com.au. I'm hoping to get hold of one shortly as I can hopefiully get one of the guys coming to Australia to race in December to bring it with them.

We are again working on much smaller one man.

Would like to see how the REAL paddlers react.

Thanks and Arigato.
