Heritage, formerly hop-on-top, makes 'glass sit on tops with hatches. The 18' model has a beam of about 20 inches. The optional thigh straps are great. I've only demoed the boats and I had a great time demoing them, they would stay on edge quite nicely. The rep/builder that I talked to had a carbon fiber one that weighed something like 35 pounds. During the demo day I found I prefered the 18' heritage to a Necky Looksha IV, but that preference may be bogus because they didn't have a sprayskirt for the Necky. For sleek sit on tops there are always surf skis ;-) Futura, Venture Sport, Tsunami, Twogood are some of the US manufacturers for surf skis. kirk *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.gasp-seakayak.net/paddlewise/ ***************************************************************************Received on Thu Jul 09 1998 - 06:37:57 PDT
