Kayak is sold!

I've taken a deposit. The kayak is on hold till Saturday August 27th. I will update this post if the sale completes or not.

Designed for rough water and covering distances, this expedition kayak is maneuverable, directionally stable and can carry high loads. Designed to fit the large paddler. The volume in the cockpit has been increased by adding 1.5" (3,8 cm) of extra height between top of the seat and underside of...

When I was hunting for one recently, it felt like very few spots were still making/selling tapered dry bags :( This isn't the one you asked for; but it is available fwtw: https://www.kayakacademy.com/collections/dry-bags/products/ka-tapered-vented-dry-sack I had two shipped via...

Appreciate the advice. That does look like a rather tidy repair you did! I haven't worked with fiberglass yet but may have to study up a bit and take a similar crack at it.

Lol, well knock on wood :)

The skeg on my explorer still seems quite water tight (the interior looks thoroughly glassed in) but on the outside it's showing a gap where some material has been nocked off. Love some advice on a good approach to repair this. The lazy impulse is to nock off anything loose and goop some epoxy...

I gave up and bought a new one :)

Wanted to buy; your used Delphin 155! I'm located in Saanich but happy to travel a decent ways for pickup. Pretty open on condition so long as it's usable (or can be made usable), though in good condition is preferable. Happy to pay a fair price based on the state of the kayak.

Kayak has moved on to a new home!

The Solstice family of kayaks has long been the pride of the Current Designs Performance Touring Kayak fleet. The Solstice GT is the flag ship touring kayak and the most popular composite kayak ever made. This updated classic delivers a predictable feel while slicing through the water. Like all...

https://www.ikea.com/ca/en/p/rensare-waterproof-bag-10482036/ Looks like they recently added a 2.5L version for a whopping $2.49

Dad always said they over engineer stuff so a few left over fasteners is expected :p

https://www.ikea.com/ca/en/p/rensare-waterproof-bag-60432505 Anyone checked these out? I need to stock up on dry bags for packing on trips and these certainly hit a nice price point.

Jeune Bros on Johnson St was the ticket. They had a nicely organized wall of various strap bits including what I needed. Thanks all for the various suggestions, we most helpful.

Exceedingly kind of you to offer! I was hoping to get it fixed up before the weekend though and am on the Island. I'll take a crack at a couple local spots but will let you know if I fail to find anything.

They seem to think they would have what I need. I'm going to swing by tomorrow, thanks for the tip.

Looks like they have a lot of neat bits; thanks for the tip :)

The mec ones also look the ticket but I believe I need 0.75" / 19mm which they don't appear to stock :(

Super appreciate the name; that does indeed look correct thanks! The stock one is embossed ITW (hadn't initially noticed) so I think it's originally one of these: http://na.itwnexus.com/content/standard-triglide I'll take a peek at Capital Iron.
