i have a wheelboy and think it's perfect, i love it.
but my buddy david tried it and says it's too big for him.
what weight range is the boat good for?
would it be too much trouble to make a SMALLBOY?
Marko???

HI

Making a new mold would be way too expensive but we can propably supply one that has been presurised slightly less. It will affect also on rocker and edges. less rocker and less forgiving edges.

I think wheelboy is good for over 60 kg and i'M 72 KG - Approx .150 lbs.

Yeah, plus we need a Bigboy first

I just sent a pic of the "big Boy USA" to the site- I'll get some more info on it for the specs.

sorry to hijack the thread, but is there ever going to be a plastic big boy?

How big is ur mate?

i weigh 65 kg (bout 140 pounds in yankee style ) and not quite 6 foot and can super clean cartwheel it in flat water!
and im not built very big at all.

i found the boat seems to respond better to body movements rather that brute force.

i think he's about your weight, maybe a little less.
he's just used to a boat with less volume. (i think he's just jealous )
i weigh 178 lbs and when i get in his boat, it sinks. (ll session)

Hi


I think we can pick you one smaller wheelboy. we are running some new colour + machine test soon and there will be some boats that might be smaller but we need an order through Bill Reap ...


bigboys are shipping as we speak. please order asap if you want one.

Hey C1ers,

Let's get some sense of realism here. Drakkar just introduced a plastic and glass C1 playboat to our 'tiny' market. And now we are asking for Bigboys in plastic, Smallboys and Fatboys. We need to calm down.
Hey, when is that Fatboy coming!!

With Gratitude,
Bruce

HI

I recently left the fatboy plug to production. I hope we will be able to finish it soon. There is plenty of things being done.

Plastic boys are working hard, despite our plastic specialist has a broken hand and will on sickleave for ANOTHER 2-3 weeks. Wheelboy will be introducet in new colours and stiffer plastic (lighter). Also the hipgrapper will be out around same time.

Moldmakers are now making our kayak molds
, which will keep them busy for a while.

And I have 3 new things on table ... one interesting to this forum, Carburator c-1. (A boat for winnig the worlds) .

I just need to hire some sales agents and new dealers at the same time ..... we have kanumesse soon ... honestly we are too few here in Drakkar and perfectionist in a way too, we would need a dosen of helping hands.
