C-Forum

A little history, I am 190lbs, 5'9". I moved from an H3:255 to a Burn Large 2nd edition for the past 4 years. It has been a great boat. First off I can fit in it on a 7.5" saddle without my thighs digging in the combing. It was also nice and wide for ...

... in any open boat for years.. so I really can't help with a comparison. But I've converted the wavesport X, necky blunt, bliss stick flipstick, H3-255, burn L, prijon pure xl, wavesport habitat and the 2nd generation burn. The best for me is the burn. The worst was the habitat. Best advice I can ...

Apologies, just read the rules and realized this should have been posted in the main forum.

... my first giant leap into a C1... from a 14 foot open. :o Picked up a H3 255 based on the strength of some reviews of it as C1 I've read here and ... my Googling, I came across this: http://cboats.net/c_db/list.php?name=H:3%20255&boat_id=351" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; If the ...

Sold.

Yep. H3/255

wow. if it's a 255 that's a great hull to convert.

... I agree that knee position low and wide is critical for boat control in a C1. I have a newly outfitted Burn (having just retired a Pyranha H3 255) and the Burn is the best conversion I have paddled to date! I have a Robson Finkenmeister and have been frustrated with this boat (I still frequently ...

... a difference. I can sit in the probe all day long and only be slightly stiff. The first time I paddled my new C1 on the river (it's a Pyrhana H3 255 conversion) I sat in it straight for about 3 hours and my ankles were killing me by the time we got to the take out. Since then I've practiced a ...

If you search you can see my H3:255 and Burn converstions. Mine sounds similar to Pierre's. But I have never used the fence rail thing, seems like it would add weight, just glue foam on the rail that came the boat, not glued to the floor. ...

... both boats had bulk head ottfitting. For whatever the reason, the Skeeter was much easier to roll to me then then the Taureau. In my C1s (H3:255 and Burn), I have moved to supporting knee cups, straps and no foot pegs. I much prefer that set up for me going forward.

I have an H3 255 with a saddle height of 7.25"

Thinning the herd. I have a Tuareau, CU Fly, Big EZ C-1, H3 255 C-1, and Riot Niro 58 I need to get rid of soon. All boats are in East Tennessee. Just make an offer I need these gone.

That was quick but the boats are sold thanks.

... paddle the Burn 2010. One friend came from the Spanish fly and loves the Burn. He sits on a 7.25" saddle too. I am thinking about replacing my H3:255 (pre-burn) with a 2010 or newer large Burn, I am 185lbs. Are you doing a bad thing? Well, that depends, I am sure some OC purist on this board would ...
