Do not buy a canoe from Confluence Kayak Co.
Why are they posting this big long screed about rowing frames on a canoe forum? It shows you how out of touch they are. If you are going to buy a canoe, get one from Esquif, Bell, or Mohawk, companies that are not mega-conglomerate corporations and that still care about their customers.

Hey, wake up Cboats.net. I need adhesive advice.
I posted a couple of days ago asking about the relative strengths and weaknesses of using G-flex epoxy versus 3M urethane adhesive to patch a crack all the way through a Royalex hull. The only response I got was a guy telling me to post the question on the GCA board. Well THWT, I thought this was th...

3-M structural adhesive vs. West Systems G-Flex epoxy?
Which is best to repair a crack all the way through a Royalex hull prior to armoring it? I have used 3M before and had good results as it is very strong and flexible, the same attributes G-Flex is touted as having.
Thanks for your input.

Drysuit repair question
I have a Gore Tex drysuit with latex booties I put in it. It has a new neck gasket and I am getting ready to replace a wrist gasket. I sent it to Amigos last year and they did a good job patching a bunch of pinholes and a couple of larger rips. Now my question I am going to wash it and spray it with...

You guys are the best. Thank you
Phil, I especially appreciate the PDF on G/Flex application to Royalex. Have you used that stuff? Thanks Gary, for the detailed primer on S-glass repair. I will stick with ABS patches as I have had very good luck with them. That is if Confluence won't warranty the boat. Bo from Sunrift has been grea...

Will Lyons is one of the best Cboaters in the SE
Unfortunately I understand he has been toying around with the dark side. He makes some good points about discomfort but hey, we are all masochists here anyway, right@

Cracked Outrage, question about best glue
:cry: This boat has been paddled 16 times in 10 months. I am waiting to see if Confluence will make good on the warranty. If not you will hear the full story here late. In the meantime, I need avice on the best glue to seal up the crack. It is in the stern right in the middle of the hull, about 10-1...
