My Seguin is for sale. She's a 17 ft 10 in (length) X 22 in sea/touring 
kayak built in 1998-1999 using the S&G okume-glass-epoxy laminate 
technique. Designer is Rob Bryan. Since I originally built her for touring 
in Maine's rocky waters she's built for strength, weighing 54 lbs. Sides 
and bottom completely refinished summer 2000.

This is a beautiful boat, a *very* fast boat which tracks well and turns 
surprisingly well for a boat of her length. She can be rolled with relative 
ease - not as easily as my Romany, but much more easily than any of the CLC 
boats except perhaps the 20 inch North Bay. Bulkheads and VCP hatches are 
absolutely watertight. Retractable skeg. The design was modified slightly 
to eliminate the weathercocking seen with some Seguin boats, and this 
particular one is just about wind-neutral up to winds of 15 kts, at which 
point some edging will keep her on track. Good storage room for a week's 
trip, longer trip if you pack carefully.

She can be seen and paddled here in central NY - or for those who are 
seriously interested, we may be able to arrange a short trip for demo. 
Asking $800.
