Re: Upper Buffalo this Weekend.

Woke up early, got the fire going again and scrounged around for food then relaxed till about 11 when we headed for ...

Floating 3/24 or 3/25

Anybody doing some floating within a reasonable drive from Clinton or interested in doing some. No whitewater due to the lack of a skirt/helmet, but I have my XP 10 now and I am itching to get it wet. Just lemme know on here or text/call me at 501-253-0139

Re: Need some opinions on some yaks...

Well, as of yesterday, I made it official. I now am the proud owner of a LiquidLogic Remix XP 10 in mango. Absolutely gorgeous boat. Now, I need the paddles, PFD, gloves... etc. Any suggestions, cheap(er) ones, that is.

Re: Need some opinions on some yaks...

Your insight is appreciated JBL. I was doing some research on the boat and found that some guys in Canada fish out of their XPs and they seem to love it. They have pictures up of them catching fish and with fishing gear on the boat and it seems the XP is SO versatile it can literally handle anything...

Re: Need some opinions on some yaks...

Thank you very much for your insight! That was helpful. Then, I guess the last question of doubt I have about sticking with the XP would be, Is it worth the higher price tag? If I pay for it, will it return the favor? I also noticed that you are located in Conway and I attend UCA and live here in Cl...

Re: Need some opinions on some yaks...

The boat I saw at Gander Mtn. was the Future Beach Patriot 126. So if you know anything about that, that information would be appreciated. Thanks.

Re: Need some opinions on some yaks...

Thank you 501nd, the I was lookin at the XP at OOS in LR because I am from Clinton so HS is a little bit of a drive. But I really would like to try one of those out. What are the costs/limitations/rates etc. for testing out a boat?

Re: Need some opinions on some yaks...

Yeah, I have looked at that boat, but it seems that the storage isn't quite what I was looking for. I want something that I could overnight out of.
