In Response To: New builder (RogerP)

: I'd agree with both previous responses to you. I'm building a Pygmy, but people are clearly satisfied with either them or CLC. Have a close look at both web sites, have them send you catalogues, take a look at performance reviews such as in Sea Kayaker Magazine (online). And yes, avoid getting into the Pygmy vs CLC debate...I think that BOTH companies are less than genuine in some of their criticisms of each other. Find a look you like and go for it! And if you're new to the sport, take some classes.

happy building

Chuck
