new boat

[Kris]

Hey ,
Looking at these little canoes ,"Kingfishers" by Pacific Canoe, does anyone know much about these or possibly own one??

Dedicated little fishing craft,plastic,3.6 mtrs, take a petrol 3 or 40lb thrust(which i'm told gets 'em planning) has 2 rod holders,dry hatch and can be easily carried by one person.
Will fit on top of any roof racks and comes in a lovely stealthy "forest green" colour.

I'm thinking perfect craft for estuary,creek and flats work,

any info would be much appreciated,
thanks

Indeed some of those canoe/kayak things are pricey.
I see them sitting there at DohDohDohDoh Outdoors and I go and look thinking, 'Gee that'd be a cheap way to get out on the bay', then I get close enough to see the price tags and think 'Wowsers! Who'd have thought.'

Running costs have got to be low though :-)
