Hi.  We’re looking for a used kevlar or carbon fibre double.  Our trusty old Seaward Gemini is getting too heavy at 90 lbs!

If you have or know of one, please let me know.  Thanks, Helen

Hi Annette, I have a 17′ 10″ ft Seaward Kevlar Legend for sale $3500. It is fast boat with a 31″ by 15″cockpit. 12.5 ” deep. Designed by Nigel Foster. It may fit the bill!   Cheers, Susan or Gerry

Looking for used NDK Explorer or Romany, Valley Etain 17.5 or 17.7, P&H Cetus MV or HV, or Tiderace Xplore M or L to try and buy. I’m 174cm (5’7″). Have been paddling a fibreglass Valley Nordkapp HM for 20 years, but the ocean cockpit has become too small for me now (funny how they shrink!) and I need something a bit wider and keyhole shape for safe wet exit and reentry. The Nordkapp cockpit is 15″ x 19.5″ and 11″ high (for comparison).

Any leads welcome. Thanks! – Annette

SKABC PICNIC IS THIS SATURDAY!!

All details are on the website.

We still have space on the 2 paddles and lots of room for the potluck picnic. Go to the calendar or events page and log in to sign up.

Reminder that it is fireworks night so if you come for just the picnic parking may be harder to find and traffic may be heavy.

We hope to see you there!

Hi Ken, thanks for your reply. Where is Howe Sound? a place or a club? Could you message me via my phone or email so we can chat offline? Thanks!

[Ken Bigelow]

Nice videos Jenny!

A few of us are also located on the North Shore myself included. Happy to introduce you to the Howe Sound if you have not been already.

Always keen to work on my rolling skills.

[Jingning Zhang]

To be more specific, I am interested in finding someone to do calm water paddling near north vancouver or rolling practice during weekday evenings. I am particularly interested in improving my rolling skills, like practice hand roll, back deck roll or storm roll.

[Michele Filion]

I’m interested. Where are you located and do you have a picture of the condition?

Hi All,

I am Jenny and I just moved to Vancouver Area this month from SF Bay Area. I have been sea kayaking for 6 years. I like kayak surfing, playing in dynamic water and practicing rollings. I am new to this area so I am looking for paddling friends to go out together during weekday evenings or weekends. I live in North Vancouver, so Ambleside Beach seems the most convenient during the weekday, but Deep Cove can also be a good option. For weekends, I don’t mind travel farther for paddling, 1-3 hours drive is fine, over night trip is great too. Just message me if you’re looking for paddling buddy too.

Here is my YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkkxWRwCCC-LrEu-Q-Q5CcQ

So you know what types of kayaking I have done and my skills.

Cheers,

Jenny
