Pyranha MicroBat 230
Great condition; flat hull; nose cone; go-faster scratches.
And it's yellow

Apparently not quite as good as a Mamba, but 1/3 of the price!

Isn't Jim in the market for a creeker, given his latest exploits? I think you should use some agressive marketing techniques Cormac, i.e., hunt Jim down and steal his wallet then quickly (if you can in a Fiesta :D) drive away, leaving Jim's new boat on the ground beside him for him to cry into.
-
A Fiesta will go faster than Jim's car at the minute.
-
Your point being? ;D
-
It means the escape speed isn't really an issue.

You boys thought you could slag me off in a thread marked 'Creeker for sale' on the basis that I'd never read it. Clever, but it didn't work. I'm always checking up on Lynch - one of the key survival techniques in Irish kayaking is knowing what Lynch is doing at every moment, and not just on the river. For example, read this imaginary, but typical, scenario:
Me: 'Right, I'm all set to run this unportagable, unrunnable heinous drop.'
Rescue guy: 'Cool, I've got a rope on this entry rapid here.'
Me: 'Who's down below?'
Rescue guy: 'Cormac's got your back down there - slings, ropes, tethered rescue, that kind of thing.'
Me: 'I'm walking.'
What did Cormac's do to his Microbat to give it a flat hull? My car is fine by the way, it just has a banged-in panel over one wheel. Anyone have a spare front-right wing panel for a Fiat Marea?

Heed well Jim's advice, and, as he says, not just on the river. His observations would also hold true if you encountered me at any weddings, funerals, or Bah Mitzvahs.
-
I didn't listen to Jim's advice and lost sight of Cormac, the next thing I knew my legs where clamped together as Cormac used me as a climbing pole to launch off for crowd surfing.
-
any weddings, funerals, or Bah Mitzvahs.
How many Bah Mitzvahs does the canoe club get invited to?
PS any luck selling the boat.
-
there are Jewish sheep now?
-
The club used to get invited to all the best Bar Mitzvahs - we were regulars down at the synagogue - until that schmuck Lynch ruined it for everyone. Oy vey, I swore I'd never talk about it again. His one-man reenactment of the Passover, complete with sheep's blood on the doors of Jewish houses, was a joke too far. As for his ill-advised apology to the rabbi - I still cross my legs instinctively every time I think of his drunken attempt to 'convert himself' using his river knife.
No, we don't go to Bar Mitzvahs any more.
Jim.
