Another C1 conversion question.....

Post by pdown2 »

I asked about a WS Big EZ not that long ago but now I'm going to ask about the Dagger CFS.....Big EZ just looked a little to small to trust.

Anyone paddled a CFS as a C1? Realistically I'd just be running Chattooga Sec4 type stuff, nothing crazy. I just want a boat I can trust and one that offers a little more play than my Prophet.

Also if you have converted one, you got any pointers??

Thanks,
-Paul

I think the dagger cfs would be better for creeks, resurfacing, etc.

The big ez is a very general, all-rounder boat (if there is in fact such a craft anymore). Big ez would be better for play, some river running, etc.

I also think the big ez is wider, offers greater initial stability, and has slightly more c1 friendly cockpit.

Hopefully others can correct or support my comments.

not real popular as K-1 and IMO would not be a good C-1.
