5 years with Plaster Rock and District Fire Department. Plaster Rock NB. Now a new level 1 instructor, just to keep me busy! Who else is a FF?

The sea flea is a beautiful boat, easy build and very fast and stable. My daughter and son can easily outrun me without trying and I have a fast boat.
I used 18 gauge pvc vinyl that has been exceptionally tough. I have had to pull her off the rocks, stumps and sandbars with no repairs. Install the float bags, the boat will still float full of water if that happens. She turned it over sideways once when she backed it under another kayak, she loves the rapids on the river. She has outgrown it now and I will sell it or give it away.

Building a Sea Bee for my daughter right now. Some pics are up at the same site.
