subject: [Paddlewise] about take-apart kayak
Date: Mon, 01 Sep 2003 15:50:41 -0400
thinking of buying a take apart kayak but don't know much about them. I have 
a Feathercraft Big Kahuna and want a kayak that I can split to make it more 
easy to store and and to tow with a bike, since I can shorten the kayak by 
one third, at least.
Since they weight more, does it affect the nimble side of the kayak (like 
the NDK Explorer).
Could it take repeated assembling and desassembling very often (maybe each 
time)
Is it possible to have a skeg. ( I would like a kayak with no rudder or skeg 
but maybe that's not raisonnable).
And does it leak.
thanks
