 What's your favorite materials? |
 |
Err, I thought that this section looked empty and a little lonely, so I'm writing a post.
What's the best material for an open boat, and why?
Royalex, Polythene or Composite?

After watching you on sunday it brought back memories of my open boat days!
I was quite good,  sending the outrage looping in tripple one, Running the Tryweren in my 158 was cool too (Cant spell)
I think i even have a 4* to go with my level 2 open boat  
But I've never taken an OC1 down the Lyn!!
Erme next??

I had a feeling you'd paddled open a while back. 
The Erme is on the list - maybe the trip in a couple of weeks time ?
Thanks again to you and Mark.
Excellently led - the boof practice just before we really needed it really paid off and your calm unobtrusive positioning in places where you could rescue if you needed to didn't go unnoticed.

| Best Material for w/w canoe |
|
In my quest to find out about outfitting Vivien's Prelude I have discovered a lot. w/w canoes are more popular on this side of the pond and I have been seeking help from a variety of places. Royalex is far easier to outfit because epoxy resins stick to it and It puts up with the abuse better that composite.
If anybody wants help with a polyethylene one contact me.
