Kayak wanted!!!!

[JWide]

Looking for a freestyle boat that will also play well on rivers and surf.

I'm 6ft and about 11 stone.

looking at around spending up to £350

A Lil Joe or blaze 7.1 would be ideal,

Can any one help me.


Many thanks,


Jon

Im tempted to sell my cherished trixster as i never use it these days if your interested in that?

I will defiantly think about it but what spec/ model is it hard to tell from the blog. I would like to check that out before considering it.



Thanks for the reply.

Its one of the comp models with power seat. Its fairly old but has always been a second boat, so should have plenty life left in it. Superb wave/surf very fast down the line and able to do big moves . Downside is can be a bit of handful in a messy hole.

You would have some change out of that budget as well

Jon,

I have a Blaze 7.1 for sale. Used maybe 8 times (mostly Teeside ww site) or on Coniston Water so is in excellent condition (stored in garage at all times..apart from occasionally sitting in the living room). I put in hip-pads (and airbags). Was looking for £375 ono as the hip-pads cost £25 and then the airbags....still has all the bits it came with too (extra foot plate, water bottle etc).

I like it soooo much.....I bought the Blaze 6.9 as the 7.1 was too big for me. Tis a fun boat.......and the unusual but really nice yellow/orange/fire colour.

I live in Cumbria but visit Woking, Surrey at least once a month so could transport to Surrey.

Let me know please if you are interested or not.

Happy paddling,

trish.:)

p.s. I also have some climbing gear for sale....barely used and then only on the indoor wall - knee op stopped play!
