Kudzu Posted June 6, 2004 Report Share Posted June 6, 2004 Anyone reading this built and paddled a Diva? I have been looking at canoes and kayaks and I keep coming back to Kayaks. Fact is I really like a kayak better than a canoe despite the extra weight and drawbacks to my intended use. I would love to hear from users of the boat. After looking at everything I can find on the web on canoe's and kayaks the Diva compares well with other kayaks in the specs department. Just nothing like being able to try one out. Of course, thats the disadvantage of building your own. No way to try it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken_Potts Posted June 9, 2004 Report Share Posted June 9, 2004 Jeff, I can't believe you haven't had any response. Diva's a pretty boat and there have probably been plenty put together. If you don't hear from anybody here maybe an email to Graham and Carla would get you a name and number of a builder or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwb Posted June 22, 2004 Report Share Posted June 22, 2004 Search for Diva in the forum, or find posts by me, and you will get my responses on building them. I intend to publish a link to a site that will show the construction and launching. The two I built are both great. They track really well, and paddle effortlessly. Chris.

Steve Day Posted June 22, 2004 Report Share Posted June 22, 2004 I am not a kayaker, but the Diva looks pretty good to me. I would be interested in seeing comments and builder's reports on the boat. I may be looking for another project and the Diva may be it. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
