cheers but invader is a bit close to the 4 metre missile territory i think, but will put it to the eventual recipient.

If it needs a weld give us a shout. Im practicing :D!

I've got a couple of split Jefe shells sitting around down here. May even have a seat to go with one of them. More than welcome to have one or both on a long term loan. They've been sitting here awhile waiting for me to do something with them (snowless snowboating - just fit wheels?) but haven't got round to it!

Give me a shout if you're interested!

EDIT: Just noticed your paddle porn link to OC1's and was about to send it to my mate from my old club who only paddles OC1's... Then realised it was his video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=87_qBovy9ag)... Plenty of that footage from our 2004 BC trip. Awesome boating over there. Jon's pretty handy in an OC, eh?!

thanks poke

bashed up jefe sounds ideal, but i need it as a permanent one rather than a loan, as this is generated by a swapping around of boats for a mate (long story). Quite happy to do a weld if you want sometime.

yeah i was impressed with that OC1 action, some pushy stuff in that clip (though part of me still wonders why not use a kayak and make life a lot simpler ?!). No doubt with it being BC we are not looking at pool/drop roadside stuff either!

I have a Java, for sale £100. It is in good nick apart from a goulge on the hull that has gone through. Did it on a rock on the Rawthey. Still structurly sound.

email me on thechuckster@hotmail.co.uk if interested!
