Boat Advice?
Dave B:
hmm, well clearly I can't convince you to get another dagger agent ;) .... i'd try the jackson, when i paddled cians it was really comfortable, and very easy to paddle, despite me being way off the right weight.. possible the best cartwheel boat i've paddled since the wavesporrt xxx...
while i'm talking about the jackson, for anyone out there paddling one, do you find the backrest slips down a lot?? I've heard it from one or two owners.
Ritchie:
go for another Agent...... red instead of green. (i'd be interested to see if it makes any difference??)
JODY:
The Jackson backrest is crap! Has anyone figured out how to make it better? It might as well not be there. Does replacing it work?
Other than that the boat is great... come on Kylie... join the cool kids, get an allstar!!! :D
Monkey Loving Bob:
Right boats I intend on looking at are:
Wavesport ZG54 - Because it seems to tick all the boxes, still a little tight as far as I remember though, but I loved it when I tried it before.
Project 62 - Because everyone and their uncle who doesn't have a star seems to have a project and they can't all be wrong
Superstar - As above, just swap the 'star' and 'project'
Riot Flair & Astro - I have vague recollections of sitting in a flair and saying wow this is comfy, so I'm gonna give 'em a go
Bliss-Stick Smoothy - because I love my Mystic and will try anything BlissStick made at the mo.
That's my list at the moment, but open to review at any time.
Sara, thanks for the offer but Dave Coxes Project 52 was like a pair of size six shoes on me, no way I was getting into that!!!
Ritchie, fair point in that it's gonna be swapping like for like with any of the big manufaturers boats really, all i'm doing is looking for a boat that fits me - after that it's all down to my own ability.
Cheers so far,
Conor
KarlC:
you can try my project 62 if you like but it might be a bit big if the agent is
id go for the zg 54 its a great boat
