Designed to use as both a solo and a light-duty tandem hull

The Solo Plus is a 16'6" hull with three seats... not so three can ride but to use as both a solo or a tandem canoe.

You can add a seat to some tandems for solo use, but most are too wide to reach the water well from the center. Conversely, most solos are too narrow to fit paddlers in the ends. We shaped one hull to suit solo or tandem use, and the Solo Plus is unique since it works well both ways. It's wider in the ends than most solos, yet narrower in the center than most tandems.

Used solo, it's a stable, efficient touring hull with high capacity. Tandem, it's a short, performance design. It's fast and hauls light gear.

What made it so formidable? Huge saltwater crocodiles, great white sharks, venomous sea snakes and deadly jelly fish, massive surf, the challenge of coordinating freshwater and food dumps, three 100-mile stretches of sheer cliffs without any landing zones and dangerous cyclones were some of the most daunting threats. As an extra challenge she made an 8-day, 7-night crossing of the 350-mile-wide Gulf of Carpentaria. In spite of the physical toll of paddling in the tropical heat Freya averaged upward of 35 miles per day for nearly a year.

17ft long - 22.5 inches wide - rudder - Red with gray - 2 water tight hatches (plastic secured outer cover with neo under covers). Very good condition.

This is an excellent beginners boat (it's what I used for the first two years). Tracks well, extremely stable and easy to steer with the rudder.

Since it is a high volume boat, it is also excellent for camping, multi-day excursions or day trips along the New England coast.

This has been used infrequently over the last few years. The usual light hull scratches in plastic. All are surface and superficial. Always stored indoors. Cleaned/Protectant every year (even the years it didn't make it out of the garage)

Asking $795 includes cockpit cover and paddle

Excellent kayak for lake or ocean kayaking. We used the kayaks for one season on large lakes in New Hampshire for touring. Originally purchased for ocean touring along the Rhode Island and Massachusetts coast, we never made it that far. These kayaks have been stored inside, suspended on 'Talic' kayack racks, suspending the kayaks on 2 inch thick straps. The boats are in 'like new' condition. We always entered the boats from the water placing the paddles behind the seat combing so that the hull would not be scratched. We placed yellow duct tape behind the seat combing so as not to scratch the surface with the paddles when entering as seen in the photos (http://boston.craigslist.org/gbs/boa/1747540430.html)

Feedback from one of last year's participants ...

"Just wanted to thank you for a great weekend. I thought the structure and the
content of the course were great. I learned a lot (much more than I expected)
and was glad we got to apply our new knowledge on the water immediately
following the instruction. Splitting into smaller groups in our kayaks was
most helpful. The course content was well organized and not to simple but not
to complicated either and it all related to what we were doing. The visual
aids were most helpful. ... From the materials presented it seemed like you
put much time and thought into the course. Thank you!"
