Vantage Full Throttle Ultra Lite $2000

OC1 Vantage “Full Throttle” Ultra Lite(updated version) Made on Big Island by Pineula Vaa (www.occanoe.com) This boat is a great boat for recreational as well as competative paddlers. Great in the surf! Bought new in 2006 and used less than 25 times. Owner only spends a few months on Maui each year. It has been stored in a cover under a carport and is in great shape. Comes with a blue custom cover. They sell new for $3,500 without cover, but you can buy this slightly used for $2000. Will ship to off island paddlers. It has a few small cracks with clear tape over. Only weighs 22lbs. For more information or to schedule a time to see it please call Tim Lara 808-283-2470 or email tim_lara@hotmail.com

"Paddler-proof" OC-1's

My naval associates used to joke about products that were "sailor-proof." The general conclusion that there was no such thing.

Our club is in a metropolitan harbor with more than its share of stiff currents, submerged pilings, and floating hull-cracking debris. It has also maintained a custom of communal OC-1 and 2's. In recent weeks the number of hull and rudder damage boats has risen to crisis proportions.

Carbon-hulled OC-1's are not normally built for durability or hard use.

Anyone have any suggestinos for club boats? I've given Tahitian fiberglass boats some thought, but the consensus is they are too hard to manuever among the piers, and crossing ferries and water taxis.

Suggestions anyone?

make a canoe stand

Anyone have instructions/pictures for a sturdy do-it-yourself canoe stand? I see, Snarfblat, you posted something back in 2005...
Thanks!

Small cosmetic patches to carbon

Got by Burnham Boat Sling carrier and immediately dropped my Fuze taking it off because I'm not used to transporting boats upside down (can't slide it back and forth from the rear of the vehicle). Little 3/4 inch chip at the bow tip, but I can see the dark material below the first layer.

What is the recommended fill to keep the damage from growing?

Huki V2-X Outrigger

Has anybody paddled one of these yet to offer any feedback. I like the new look. I'm on the East Coast and thinking of just going for it sight unseen. I noticed that it's a higher volume boat though and we're a combined weight of 290. OK? How would the new lower seating affect paddling efficiency and stability? Iakos are not adjustable, is this any cause for concern? Thjanks for any help.
