Should probably say as well, I'm around 5"8 and 160 lbs so looking for something that will fit me perfectly if possible.
Any Used Carbon Playboats Around California?
Hi,
So I'm in California for the Summer and hoping to bring a playboat home with me back to Ireland. I will more than likely be bringing a regular plastic boat home but just inquiring to see if anyone knows of any carbon boats for sale in California, particularly the Sacramento area. Ideally, I'd love to get my hands on a carbon 2010 All-Star but I assume they are hard to come by in good condition these days. Hoping to pay no more than 700 dollars for the boat as I still have to pay to fly it home too.
Also interested in what people think of the idea of buying a carbon boat and flying it home with me. Am I mad trying to bring carbon on British Airways? Would I get to the other side and unwrap it to find a pile of crushed carbon?
Sorry if this is in the wrong sub-forum also. I was hoping for this to be more of a discussion and less of a wanted ad. Thanks!

Not many of those boats around and I don't think $700 is in the ball park. They get flown all the time though. I don't think that is a problem.
There is one in use at the World Cup that might be available. Check your PMs.
Anyone else know of any available? The one Phil suggested was outside my budget. Willing to spend about 900 dollars now. I've found some extra money.
Aaron Lombardo had one for sale recently. He lives in Durango, Colorado. Call 4 Corners River Sports to get hold of him. 1-800-4Corners.
