sounds like a lovely trip. Good the work paid of. The yellow bags look good in there. Hope it is the first of many. The osprtey / kite is no speed demon. They shine when things get rough or twisty

Have A great time with your wife. Hope togetehr you can have many trips. Looking forward to some pics.

I Will make some better pics next time What is on the photo. A wildfire. Some northern irish bags. A solway dory leeboard with mount A hobie kayak sail of about 2 square meter with 2 piece mast that is part of the set. A northstar seat A 30 l barrel that is also a footrest. 2 sidebags.

Slowly getting there. First sailing is done.a few smaller itirations are still in my head.

AS a freestyle coahc, the solo us variant. There are not many boats that work well for the 2 disciplines. THe starfire with a tall persaon 185 cm plus is more or less the only i can think of. For petit ( sub 160cm) the echo and some others are nice for canadian ok for freestyle. Enjoy the...

Hi lp, To me canadian style is big boat pasdlesld solo kneeled in the middle lenght wise. Kneeled in the chines gunnel close t9 the water narrow blade. Boat wise. big is good. Bigger is better. So while the twister and echo are great boats. Not f9r this All other 3 you mentioned are fine...

Looking forward to the nexbuild pics and even more to paddling pics

hereby our story of our flash. that was a bell white gold with alu gunnels when it left the factory. https://www.songofthepaddle.co.uk/viewtopic.php?p=525000#p525000 That is more then 10 years past it still is paddled every week.

Keep enjoying your flash, repair the damage. and put your spare cahs in paddling more trips :)

Same for brands that are still making boats. Swift dumoine wenonah rendevous and argosy to name some that could fill a niche.

I wish old town would move all their rx moulds to esquif or another place that puts them back in production. Same is for mad river , dagger, mohawk. Not all models needs big production. Not sure how many are needed for a production run. Just let people write down thier names. Wait untill...

some possible reasonswhy swift has a bigger can base: swift sells probably 4 times more boats, or more siwft has a dealer network swift keeps his socia media running (where are the specs of the bw x or is this just the rename of the 17 ? or is it a bigger versoin next to the 17 dave yost has...
