Spice L C1

Any thoughts on this boat as a C1? http://www.fluidkayaks.com/wwkayaks/spice.html Found one on the database here, but the blurb is from fluid, not saying so much for the boat as a canoe. http://www.cboats.net/c_db/list.php?type=5&alpha=S&boat_id=362&name=Spice%20L ...

... other canoers. Show up with a kayak of the same vintage, and the other kayakers will ask where you found it. Why does this matter? Variety is the spice of life. People like doing things that are new and different. That could mean doing a new run, or mean paddling a new and different boat on the ...

Galasport and salt water

... literature that came with my paddle that it should not be used in salt water. The problem is that I am at the Outer banks in NC with my new fluid spice and I really need to be in it to get the feel of the boat. So does anyone know of issues with these paddles or any paddles in salt water? Doe ...

Saddle height really depends on the hull. I'm going to try and get away with an almost 8 inch saddle in my fluid Spice until I get back into shape. It's a game between being tippy and being comfortable. Start high and chop it down. Bulkheads are the best (for me anyways). I had ...

Got a Spice L

I found a nearly new Fluid Spice L for super cheap in TN. Unfortunately it's outfitted completely wrong and I have no idea how to use it. Theres a seat boated to the floor and some foot blocks way out in the end of it. I really don't understand.

Thanks for all the help.

The Spice is more of a "river runner" and I don't know of anyone that personally has a CR125 There's a few other's I could suggest but the Flirt is one ...
