as everyone know i'm quite the man to both sniff out a deal and bleed someone dry when selling.
heres my deal of the week for anyone looking for a boat there's a wavesport habitat 72 on sale for €400 on irish whitewater.
I've had a look at the photos of it and it looks in great nick. its also had very very little interest so i'd say he'll take less. i'd be going for no more then 350.
i was going to buy it myself but figured that'd just be plain greedy as i have a perfectly working creeker at the moment anyway
so canoe club you can have this one for free as a gift from me to you.
haha such a gent...looks good though! 8)
I might just look into that. Anyone had any habitat experience? Dave?

starting to control the urges to buy a good, cheap boat and destroy it within 5 months...WINNING! :)
Yeah Iv just bought one, very very comfortable boat. quite roundy (unlike a burn for example) though so ud wanna make sure that suits you.
Is that boat not broken and repaired?
Yeah, edges (or lack there of) would be my only concern with a full on creeker. I'm getting some pics now. That price might suggest a repair job alright.
wern't you in a wavesport on the middle roughty Cormac?
the one i have isn't completely destroyed yet an alps trip this summer will surely compete its gentle transition into a flower pot.
No boat hasn't been repaired the guy bought it second hand so it'd be moving onto its 3rd owner. if theres a repair i couldn't see it in the pics and he says there isn't one.

Right you are simon! There was one goin goin for sale which had been.
The habbitat actually does have edges, they start about your thigh and get more pronounced towards the back of the boat.
It is a different sensation though, your more than welcome to demo mine.
Yeah, I was in a Diesel on the roughty Bill.
Could you bring yours along on Saturday if you're coming Dave? I could give it a bit of a flat water paddle.
