Dry Suit $120

Size large blue Stolquist drysuit. Latex gaskets and latex foot booties are in good shape. One seem under the arm pit needs to be repaired. Other than that it's in good shape. I'll ship anywhere in the US for $10.

Thanks,
Phil

Chris, I'm 5'9 180lbs. I started paddling an Outrage. Great boat! I finally decided to get a slightly shorter and more aggressive boat that is easier to surf. I demoed a Bell Ocoee for a weekend loved it, then demoed Zephyr for one day and loved it even more. They are both fantastic boats. The Zephy...

There seems to be a fair demand for the C-boats that Robson builds. I don't understand why they do not actively market and sell to the North America market.

I'm 30 and stated paddling about 9 yrs ago. First boat was a Caper which my brother and I still have. It's beat up pretty badly, but still floats.

I have one son 2yrs old and another son on the way. I plan to get a raft to get them interested in WW, however I hope to raise them paddling canoes.

Good Post!

Zephyr: This is my main boat. I love this boat and paddle it 95% of the time. Everything from class 2-4. Cascade: Everything from class 2-4 especially when it's cold. Although I'm re-thinking this now that I have a new IR Double D dry suit! Plus my Zephyr surfs much better :D Caper: For tandem runs ...

Maybe consider...

You should consider a Dagger Caption (outfit solo) and Dagger Encore. They may be a little more responsive than your XL13.

Trey's a big guy and loves his Encore!

Good Luck!

All good boats

The zoom may be a little difficult for you initially. From most difficult to most forgiving I would rate those boats in the following way:

Zoom, Ocoee, Zephyr, Outrage

All are GREAT boats for what you're looking for! I paddle a Zephyr and love it. Good luck.

V70XC

I just sold an 2000 V70XC with high mileage (160,000+) for $7K. This is the AWD version. (I believe 2000 was the first year they made this) It was an AWESOME boating car. I used the yakima low riders which clip very easily to the factory racks which is nice cause you can remove them with ease. Great...

Chattooga Section 4 at 1.2

Hopeing to get some feedback from all you Chattooga boaters. Is 1.2 a good/bad level to check out Section 4 for the first time in an open boat? I have good class 3-4 boating skills, not a good roll, but can swim and self rescue with the best of em. Been wantin' to check this river out for a long tim...
