Description (# available)

Pig OC1 (2): http://picasaweb.google.com/gan.wong/Pig#

7:00 Sunday high bid $250

We don't know the real name but  they are 75 lbs rigged. They have sea kayak style drop-down rudders, but the rest of the  design is all flat water. Seat position and kayak style foot board are both adjustable.

 

Cal-Mar OC1 (2): http://picasaweb.google.com/gan.wong/Calmar#

7:00 Sunday  high bid $275

These were a prototype hull from the mid 90s,  the water line turned out to be too long and the rudder too small so they never got used and the hulls remain in excellent shape. Steering is a novelty, they use a rod linkage between stick and rudder which actually works really well if you loosen up the other moving parts. The seat has been mounted on a threaded rod for fine tuned adjustability. The ama is thin, almost identical to a  Montgomery.

 

Tiger OC2 (1):  http://picasaweb.google.com/gan.wong/TigerOC2#

7:00 Sunday high bid $350

This is a couple's boat boat that needs work but if what you want is tandem paddling in something designed for speed and waves then this could be a rare bargain. Needs foam seats & jell over the seams.

 

Sorenson 10' coach boat (1) http://picasaweb.google.com/gan.wong/Coachboat#

7:00 Sunday high bid $90

90 kg 10' glass unsinkale double hull. The keels and transom mount are worn down but there is no structural damage. These were never a good choice for our ramp and dock situation.
