Nigel Deddis Greenlander Pro Sea Kayak  17'10" long 21" wide ~60 pounds fully outfitted.  Comes with skeg, day hatch, deck mounted pump and deck mounted compass, fully outfitted for expeditions, but I mostly used it for day paddles.  Low rear deck makes it easy to roll, surfs well  and it is a VERY fast sea kayak. To quote the catalog -- 

     The Greenlander Pro is a faster version of the Greenlander and has a keyhole cockpit. The Pro version of the Greenlander keeps the traditional lines of a true Intuit kayak. While many people liked the way the Greenlander paddled, they could not get comfortable in the very small round cockpit. The stern gets a reaction from everyone. Some people like it, others hate the look. While this kayak appeals to stick paddlers, all kayakers should give it a go. It is nice to see a kayak that looks different from most other kayaks on the market.

Designed in response to demand for a fast racing sea kayak, the Greenlander Pro is a slightly longer cousin of the Greenlander, with a higher deck and a large keyhole cockpit. The boat has a traditional hard chine design.

$1695

A great tripping canoe , also a fast canoe for the stock class in marathon racing.  We paddled this boat in the Adirondack Canoe Classic 90 miler last fall.   Has bow and stern sliding seats adjustable rear foot brace, and a nice portage system I made up with pack straps.  With this portage system and only 44 pound weight I've comfortably done 3.5 miles of carries in one day. $1495

Woodstrip V1-A Marathon Racing Canoe.  18'6" 32" wide 11.5"deep ~44 pounds.  Bow and stern sliding seats rear adjustible foot brace.  Set up for lighter paddler in bow but sliding seats would acomidate most any paddler combination.  Hull is very nice with only minor scratches and is glassy smooth. Meets all USCA amature racing rule specs.  Can be used in standard class with extra weight to get to 50 pound weight limit. A beautiful canoe that attracts lots of attention.  I'll get some pictures up soon
