WTB C1 playboat for a big fella

Post by muskrat » Wed Apr 16, 2014 9:38 am

I'm weighing my option as to buy or build and just need to see what's out there vs trying to convert one that I have (and learning how to do it). Searching for 'C1' on this forum returns too many results, I know I've seen plenty of posts before and now regret passing them up, but the timing wasn't right. This would be my first one, if I'm going to spend any real amount of time at the new wave park, I think I would prefer a C1 rather than my Nitro. I'm 6'2", 200lbs. Thanks yall!

Maybe Captain Aleve can be of some assistance? I'm not sure of his size though.

buy something big & with a flat bottom. If it's too short, you'll have a time making upstream moves. You may actually have more fun in a short open boat (blackfly) than a c1 conversion as your center of gravity will be a bit different. just my 2cents, ty
