I also wanted to mention that Feathercraft had a new boat at the Wsst Coast Kayak Symposium called the "Kahuna" (which is a pretty lame name, evoking images of Hawaii and surf dudes) that is the successor to the K-Light. The boat is merely a stretched version of the K-Light. According to what the dealer said, the Kahuna has two more feet of length, which would put it at about 14.5' in length. Feathercraft also had a variation on the Kahuna, called the Big Kahuna which had a larger cockpit. The price for the boat went up about $50 or so, and the weight went up only a few more pound. Alledgedly, they are coming out with inflatable waist pads for the seat. The dealer described it as a one-piece accessory that fit around the seat and could be inflated for a better fit. It's supposed to be in production now. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - All postings copyright the author and not to be reproduced/forwarded outside PaddleWise without author's permission Submissions: PaddleWise_at_PaddleWise.net Subscriptions: PaddleWise-request_at_PaddleWise.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************Received on Mon Sep 18 2000 - 23:02:35 PDT
