Can anyone suggest as to where I can buy DaKine padded OC1 bag either online or on the west coast?

I've searched and nothing but sad results...

Aloha, trying tohelp out a buddy with a Hypr Holo Nui OC-1

the aluminum block which the steering cables lock into has stripped, leaving the rudder secure, but spinning.

Does anyone have one? willing to buy and pay shipping, etc.

no response to email request from mfg.

Looking for info on what kind of rope to buy, and where to buy it in southern California.
thank you

Interested in picking up an OC-2 and would like to hear some peoples' thoughts about these two boats.
I've had the opportunity to paddle the Stingray Duo but have been unable to get on a Waveblade 2.
Any input here will be greatly appreciated.

Aloha,

Need some help. My husband recently did some work for someone who gave him a Stingray OC1. The ama and iakos it came with looks like it was slapped together, not worth trying to see if it can be salvaged. The hull is in excellent condition however we're now looking for the ama and iakos and also the foam seat. Paddling is still fairly new to us and we're hoping my son will be able to use this as soon as possible, he's 13yrs. 5' 9", 140lbs. Anyone know where we might be able to start looking for these items?

Mahalo,

I'm a part of a men's group up here in Redding California. My friend Jeremy and I (Josh) both grew up in Kona Hi, and we've been creating a bit of a buzz on how we can start a team up here.

You see, we have the perfect lake (WhiskeyTown Lake) to choose from. And we may be-able to get some backing by our church or the city if we could just find a canoe.

Does anybody know anyone who makes the real deal?

Any leads would greatly help and be hugely appreciated.

Sincerely,

Joshua

Hi, anyone know where to find cheap foam seat padding for oc6? I'm thinking about using foam pads and using duct tape on corners of seat to secure, but where to find pads?

Thanks!

In addition to the standard rudder, how many other rudders are considered necessary? At least a flatwater? Thanks.
