I am still looking for a perception saddle for a project. I am in D.C. but travel occasionally (frequently to central VA and Baltimore) and pay via pay-pal if someone wants to ship me one on the cheap. Thanks for looking.

C1 playboat help/advise
... that I would need a longer playboat than what I usually paddle k1. I was just wondering what people thought about this. This boat would be a project boat and something I would only park and play with. Looking for any advice or if you know anyone with a cheap boat, I’m open to anything. I'm ...

What a project and you are in a perfect part of the US to pursue.
Kids and rivers are a great match. A great way to build your relationship with them and have a great time.

Re: A Three Year Project: Slalom C1 to the latest specs
Unless you put some type of sealer and release agent on the plug, I doubt it will fall off when you flip - unless you are trying to do it wet. I would probably do 2 layers, let it set, flip, 2 layers on the deck, let cure, and repeat until all layers are on. A 5/4 hand laid boat is probably going to...

Re: A Three Year Project: Slalom C1 to the latest specs
Maybe should just do 4 layers on the deck? I like the idea of the outer layer off glass to sand away. Do you think just a thin coat of epoxy could serve the same purpose? I can't figure out how to interleaved layers from the deck and hull. If I do one for the hull and turn it over to do one for the ...

Re: A Three Year Project: Slalom C1 to the latest specs
5 layers of carbon is quite a bit. it will be a pretty tough boat. and a but heavier than typical. A typical race layup would be more like 1 carbon, 2 carbon/kevlar hybrid for the hull and 1 carbon, 1 or 2 Carbon/Kevlar Hybrid. I think you will also find that carbon will have a rough surface. You ma...

Re: A Three Year Project: Slalom C1 to the latest specs
Yes, a bad design is definitely a risk. The plug is 3.65m, so it is a little longer than the minimum length of 3.5m. It is also extra wide. I'm 6'6" tall and 195lbs and tired of paddling a boat (vajda lizard xl) designed for someone who is 160 lbs. I'm aiming for a lot of stability and easy turning....

Re: A Three Year Project: Slalom C1 to the latest specs
If that is regulation length (3.5M), it doesn't look like there's much stern volume. :o You may even lose some speed because the bow is going to be float high unless you're really "cab-forward". It will be interesting to see how it paddles. I've never used your "lost faom" technique to build a boat,...
