The most for sale boat!

Is it just me or are daggers the number 1 boat put up for sale? Is it that no one listens to their friends when they say they leak, or does everyone just think it will be different this time? Not trying to bash dagger just found it funny when I checked the swap....

everyboat is going to leak to some degree and the condition of your skirt has a bunch to do with it. ive rolled a car over a dagger playboat and creekboat and the only prblem was the center bow d support broke in the kingpin and foam fixed that. dagger makes very respectable boats the only problem i know of why people are giving them up is the outfitting. aswell as it being 2008 most of the kingpins bought 3+ years ago will start selling more so people can upgrade.

It's probably the most purchased boat as well so it would only make sense..

Not all boats Mike. If you don't have holes anywhere in your boat to start with... them holes can't leak.

And even if there aren't any holes in the boat to start, you can put a few in there (even a Jackson) and then it'll leak. Bear Creek anyone ?

When I first bought my unibomb (skirt sowed directly to the drytop), my Jackson Fun was actually dusty inside after a run. My MountainSurf skirt was almost as dry. They both stayed that dry for about a season. It is possible to have a dry boat.

My Dagger leaks and I love it. It gives it...character. I enjoy getting wet. It's part of life. I actually enjoy looking up into the rain too because it feels good on the face.

Different vibes for different tribes.
