I think it's a great idea Mike! I think there'd be more than a few sold. I had a blast in the day I took it down the North Branch of the Potomac. Super playful, spins on a wave, catches eddys...... what more could you ask for? Oh yeah, KEVLAR! ;)

DO IT! I'm 5'11" x 170# and it handles fine. Fun boat, super tough plastic. It's everything you've heard it is. You will have to carve down the black plastic cockpit ring where the knee hooks are. It is removable, just drill a couple rivets out. There's a couple photos in here of some great c-1 outf...

I installed a Mohawk Double (wide) strap saddle in an old Mad River Fantasy I found for cheap and un-outfitted. I thought it was the bomb at the time and it worked well. I loved the "jump in and go" of that system. Almost as easy as a bulkhead. The only thing I had to compare it to at the time was a...

I too shall be bringing a couple K-squirts. Here's the prediction for the Cheat at Parsons.

Looks like I'm in. Mikey B from Michigan might be coming with. Steve "Sparky" from Ontario says he's in too.

I'm game for any of the visits.

I'll be bringing the Mentor, of course ;) and couple K-squirts.
