Groove FS. NOT my boat

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.

Er... IIRC the Groove K1 and C1 are NOT the same (identical) boat (I'll have to re-watch my video from '97 :) ). I *think*, though I'm not certain, this is the Kayak version (I can almost make out foot bumps)

Nice catch on ebay though!

I never knew that there was a K1 Groove :o !
Looks like it has a very similar footprint to the C1 Groove, could it be that they used the same hull for both and made a different deck for the K1 version?
Shaggy does the same for the Saint K1 / Pagan C1. Same hull, but K1 or C1 specific decks.

TGG!

I'm 90% sure that is a K1 Groove. I'll likely bid on it for a friend of mine who is a young fellow that is a great paddler - he might be actually able to paddle the thing!

Why I'm pretty sure it is the K1 version:
1) You can just make out small foot bumps
2) Cockpit rim is a different shape (yes, I pulled mine out and watched the tape:) )

(see Groove page to get a good idea of what I'm talking about)
