Looking for a used Caption or Probe 14

Any Boat, Gear, or outdoor related item you have for sale. If you use it on a paddling trip, or to prepare for one, it's fair game.

I need an inexpensive tandem teaching boat in the northern Virginia area.

In Abington, not exactly in your backyard, but figured I'd throw it your way if you didn't already stumble across the ad.

Thanks, but 6 hours is a bit far. The boat is a beauty though

Any interest in a Whitesell Pyranha? I have one in Richmond in excellent condition. Asking $600.00

How about the prototype of the Probe 14? It's composite, which may or may not suit your needs. But its set up for tandem with a single long saddle. Boat is in the Blacksburg area, but I can get it up to Harrisonburg or thereabouts pretty easily. $300 with bags, $250 without.

Sounds interesting. How much does it weigh? Any pictures?

The Pyranha is a little out of my price range

It's not a sexy, lightweight, Millbrook sort of composite. It looks to be 18oz glass/kevlar hybrid cloth with roving sprayed up inside to build it up. It was meant to be a Prototype/demo boat. I'd guess is weighs about 60#. Seems to do ok as long as you're not wantonly crashing into things.

Don't have any pics at the moment, but I can get some over the weekend.

Well, you can kinda see it in the background of this one:
