Date: Mon, 3 Mar 2003 09:32:38 -0800 (PST)
greetings all.  
my name is bill dingfelder, and i am new to
Paddlewise.  
i have just bought a nicely used Nautiraid Double Raid
kayak that needs some work.  some of the wooden pieces
are broken, which is not a big problem;  i can make
new ones.  some pieces are missing, as well,  which is
a bigger problem, as i have no pattern to duplicate. 
if anyone has a has a kayak like mine, and would be
willing to send some photographs of the bare frame, 
it would be wonderful.  or if anyone has a link to
resources that would assist me, i would appreciate that
too.  thanks in advance.

There are several models of Raid doubles and there have also been some
changes over the years in the individual models in the frame and elsewhere.
I am not certain photos would help you as you seek.  Better to indicate
where you live and perhaps someone living within a reasonable distance might
let you look at his or her boat for guidance.  Also you might find a dealer
to go to.

Whoever you contact, you should specify exactly what parts seem to be
missing and the nature of the pieces that are broken.

I don't have a double Nautiraid but I am familiar with the model and do own
a single Nautiraid.
