We sailed it all over SF Bay and the CA coast. It was a great boat for two young guys. Your boat is very nice. Make sure your A-Frames were welded right and keep the bolts on the forward main strength bulkhead tight.

We have been eyeing your boat as well. I would love to see the interior. We're actually heading out the bar in the next few days (hopefully); however, we are in fact heading south and plan to spend considerable time in both Costa Rica and Panama. So, it seems we should meet up at some point. We try to update the site as to our whereabouts when we can; send us an email when you catch up with us! cheyenne Hey there Loon!

We're pretty happy with it (so ours isn't for sale). I recommend keeping an eye out for one though. We're very happy with the folding aspect since storage is always a pain on a small boat. The only things I would gripe about is that the new-style seats are black and heat up to about fifty berjillion degrees in the sun. Also, they are bulky (and not included in the website weight spec) due to the floatation, I guess. Also the aluminum oarlocks are a little flimsy, and the floatation foam around the edge is not coated in any sort of UV-resistant anything; it just degrades in the sun. One more thing is that the rivets that hold the rubrail on the rim of the boat tend to scratch whatever the boat is rubbing up against (so, the rubrail is not very efficient). Overall, I recommend them. Try to get a good deal if you end up having to buy one new though; the listed price is really high. You are welcome to email if you would like more details or any other info I could give. Yep! We’re pretty happy with it (so ours isn’t for sale). I recommend keeping an eye out for one though.
