Ha Ha, sensible men wear a rubber on all 'occasions' and there is only 5% VAT on them.

Bloody government tax everything except farts now and they will soon be taxed under 'emmissions' and climate change.

Very true, but if you only "let rip" in front of a wind farm, you may be able to offset your carbon emissions. please dont try this after eating sprouts as it could overload the wind turbine! :eek::D

I love brussel sprouts but unfortunately they dont like me, after eating them I could power a generator 24/7

Quite fancied the Grabner inflatable catamaran but it's expensive about €3500, did see a cat at one of the motorhome shows a bit smaller but can't remember the make. We used to have a Metzler inflatable canoe, really good make but the rubber eventually started to perish but it must have been over 30 years old. Used to have some great times in it, it handled like a heavy kayak rather than an inflatable dinghy.
 
have you looked in decathlon it's a large sport shop sells everything they had some inflatables when i was last in. theres one on the M60 ring road in stockport next to the viaduct look out for B&Q and it is opposite.

yup you got me there on the spontaniety vote.... and back to inflatable it is......
 
Thank you for your link John... it is lookin like the Sevylor Colorado has my attention... do you know if the seat adjusters for this enable 1 seat to be right in the middle when used as a 1 man kayak? I saw a video on you tube with a fella sat right at the back and it was dipping slightly to say the least... concerning.... wouldn't wanna capzise :rolleyes:
 
Have a look at Sea Eagle inflatables.
A wee bit more expensive but very good quality.

They have a good reputation and are sold mostly in the U.S., however there is a company called Spindrift near Bristol who import them. Good to deal with.

If you buy a cheap inflatable that doesn't track well, or isn't up to the weight it will be wasted money. Spend a bit more and get something that will do the job and last years.

Check out the Sea Eagle and Spindrift websites.
 
I have one
