Looking for OC1 in Washington D.C. area

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.

Looking for OC1 in Washington D.C. area

Post by TGSwartz »

Hey,

I'm looking for an OC1 in the D.C. area. I'd love an esquif Zephyr but the chances of finding one down here is low. Alternatively, I've heard good things about the Mohawk probe. I have some experience paddling but would label myself in the beginner almost intermediate phase. I'm fine buying a used boat from someone as long as it is decent. Also I would prefer that it was outfitted since I don't know how to properly outfit a boat. If there are no used boats around, can anyone give me good advice on where to purchase a quality boat in the area? I am 6 foot 2 inches and weigh 160 pounds. Moreover, I'm also looking for some advice on a good whitewater canoe paddle. I am interested in a good boat I can use for some time and creek boat would be better than a playboat although i am not adverse to surfing at all.

Thanks a lot
