In Response To: Strip: Can't decide- which kayak- company (Mike Josephson)

: Looking to build a stripper- I'm 6'- 200- experianced whitewater paddler-
: have some boatbuilding exp.- drift boat. I want a high performance kayak I
: can take for a few days if I want but still fun for everyday
: paddling-surfing. I wasn't pleased at all with the plans or support with
: my driftboat so I'm looking for some advice. I've been impressed with
: One-ocean, Guillemot, Laughing Loon. Thanx for any help

Don't forget Redfish Kayaks. Joe has very nice plans and excellent support.

Here's my 2 cents worth. go to a wooden kayaking event. This week is SSTIKS which is held in Washington. Next week is "Meet at the beach" later in the year is R2K3. Plus there are lots of smaller get togethers held regionally. Go to them and try out as many different boats as possible. These are great events!
