Some More Okwata

Post by hairymick »

A few more images of this magnificent design.

Note how she parts the water under power with a minimum of fuss. Allmost no wake or bow wave = very effiicient = easy paddling. 8)

Very stable - lovely

Maneuverable in skinny water

and draws very little.

In short, I love this boat to bits.

Mick.....

Thanks for the pictures , the way it just floats over the water is a credit to the design of the boat and to the builder of it.

Nice. I almost missed the kangaroo in the fourth picture. It isn't as obvious as the rhino in the second.
