Expedition boats, not all still in production Prijon Tornado (or other big Prijon boats) Riot Big Gun / Sniper you may be able to stretch it with some of the other creek boats (Dagger CFS, WS Mutant/Y) Good luck!

Well you want something that will still handle OK with a load of kit in the back, so mo st playboats are out, even quite old ones like acros and rpms. The Eskimo Cerro or spud would be reasonable choices, though the spud wouldn't be too suitable for anything where you need a lot of gear. Also the Pyranha H2O and Micorbat should be pretty good, as would the necky Blunt. Anything that is reasonable large should work, as long as it hasn't got sharp edges at the back to trip you up. The ultimate, of course, is the Prijon T-Canyon, but they are a bit tricky to get hold of nowadays, and you'll find yourself needing binoculars to see where the front of the boat is. -- James jamesk[at]beeb[dot]net BE ALERT!!!!

Ed, If your located in North East, I've got a Prijon T-Canyon. You can have it with old float bags & werner paddle for $200. It is 12 & 1/2 foot long. I don't use it much, thought I would. I keep it stored in my garage. I'm in Southern CT.

I have a Prijon Embudo. The Micro 240 works OK too. -Kay Chris Webster wrote: > Theodore F.

H3 THE Big one I think it is the 255 I used the H2 255 in Iran for our eight day un-supported trip down the Bactaria river a great boat and the improvements on the H3 range are all excellent In message , Ed Jones writes >I need some suggestions for a kayak unsupported whitewater trips. > >Thanks in advance, > >Ed -- Dave Manby Details of the Coruh river and my book "Many Rivers To Run" at <a rel="nofollow" style='text-decoration: none;' href="http://www.dmanby.demon.co.uk" target="_blank">http://www.dmanby.demon.co.uk</a> >> Stay informed about: Kayak for unsupported trip

If on a river where firepan and port-a-potty are required, you might want to look at the AIRE Lynx 2 inflatable kayak. An EcoSafe SeaKayak toilet fits nicely in front or back, and a stainless-steel catering dish works well as a firepan, nested under a soft cooler. >> Stay informed about: Kayak for unsupported trip
