: How do you like the Sea Rider and Roldarka ? I like them both at 68
: kg they both should fit me ok .
Both are great. The Sea Rider was the first boat I built so the Roldarka was just better built so it's hard to compare the two. I got about 15 rolls in the Roldarka this summer and it tracks really well. Handles great in waves too. Check it out here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=koCZxpePaTU
This boat is lashed rather than glued...much better and not so hard. If my cedar seat cracks or breaks i can cut it out and replace it no problem. Also all the wood can be sanded and treated before it's assembled giving a very nice clean look on the inside.
BEWARE: Don't leave your boat white unless your going to invest in a Sea Sock. Sand and crud get stuck in spots impossible to remove and it becomes quite unattractive very fast!
