I think you should be ok. I've had a few bigger guys in the Stinkeye who had no problems.

Re: Birmingham, AL questions

Thanks for the info everyone. Looks like pretty decent paddling...huge plus :)

Birmingham, AL questions

Sorry if this isn't appropriate to ask here, but hopefully some down that way can help? I have a pretty nice job offer in the Birmingham area and it looks like there might be decent paddling in the area? Am pondering it but have some reservations. I did have a friend of a friend tell me that it coul...

Re: C1 Remix conversion

Everything is easier to exit when upside down :D so the hip grabbers might be fine.

Re: Outfitting Millbrook Howler

Oops, everyone is pretty particular about strap placements. Are you doing a single over thighs or a Mike Yee style with over the knees and thighs?

Re: Outfitting Millbrook Howler

I'd think you'd want to rough up the hull where you want the anchors and glass in rope for anchor points. You could glue in a bulkhead though just fine too.
If your hull is just faded, a coat of clearcoat would bring it back to shine.
Pics would be nice :D
