For Sale: Jackson Villain S (creek kayak)

Post by Cowper » Tue Aug 14, 2012 7:47 am

2010 Villain S for sale, asking $575

From the Jackson website at http://jacksonkayak.com/jk-kayaks/whitewater/villain/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Villain S - $1149 (list price new)
•Length: 8’2”
•Width: 25.5”
•Height: 14.5″
•Volume: 79.5 gallons
•Cockpit size 20.5″ x 34.75″
•Weight: 41 lbs (actual measured: 45.8# with factory outfitting)
•Target weight range: 100-180 lbs

This is a good boat, but I found something I liked a little better. Somebody told me I had to sell something, our garage is already overflowing! :hammer2:

I’m going to miss the fact that this boat is only 46 pounds, that is light for a full-on creek boat! The hull is in pretty good shape for a creek boat. Remember, it’s been DRY DRY DRY...

I will get up some photos later. Can bring to Rockport, UALR pool sessions, and other selected locations for inspection, basically any place I’m already going so I don’t have to buy diesel just to “show” the boat. And yes, of course you can take it for a test paddle, just don’t ask to borrow it after a 3” rain and bring it back to me after running some mank! ;)

Cowper. How would this boat be for my 12 year old son to learn in? He weighs about 100lbs. I also have an opportunity to buy a 2fun or 1.5fun. Your Villian, the Fun or another boat? What do you recommend? :confused:

Cowper can speak to this with more authority than I, but I think the Liquid Logic Remix 47 is really the only kid-specific creek boat out there at this point.

Renee, I tried to get him to order the Jackson C1 outfitting and repurpose it, but I don't want to antagonize his roommate! :)
