Okay, for a multi-day coastal or Great Lakes trip, what would be your ultimate setup? Here's mine:
Boat: One Ocean Expedition 18'5" length, 22" beam - or Guillemot Exp. Single (19'x21")
Strips: 1/4" x 5/8" WRC- a few white cedar accents, ash in hardwood areas
Layup: not sure here, 6oz + 4oz 'football" and dynel rub strips? Haven't looked into S glass too much
Hatches: Kajak sport
Seat: That Greenley minicell seat looks awfully inviting
Rudder: Yes, carbon fiber per Vaclav
Footbraces: Yakima I 'spose, is there anything else out there?
Pump: foot operated, bulkhead mounted pump
Paddle: Hmm, so many choices - that AT bentshaft touring paddle from an earlier thread looks very cool. Haven't bonded with the GP's yet.
Sprayskirt: Whetstone is nice, for my ulti-yak I'd like to try a Brooks neo-tour with a waterproof zipper for easy cockpit access.
VHF radio, flares, a Goretex drysuit and a Stohlquist PFD and I'd be ready to rock.
