In Response To: Strip: large paddler (John Doerter)

Hi John,

I am 6'1" and go 240#. I built Vaclav's One Ocean Cirrus S&G and am very happy with it. I took it out on Casco Bay yesterday in 3' seas with 5-10k winds and came away ecstatic about the way it performed. To quote Vaclav in the Cirrus page...

"Riding the well behaved Cirrus is a pure blast and if you are in the 150 - 250lb range, this may just be the fastest and most comfortable plywood kayak you will have ever paddled!"

I'm definitely a satisfied Cirrus builder/paddler.
