Re: Necky Looksha IV DS kevlar composite-for sale

It about 9 years old.
My first boat was a Looksha IV plastic with rudder I then moved to the DS and then to my Millennium. It was my lightest boat but now that I have my CLC shearwater 17 at 41 pounds the Looksha is expendable ( and I need the room!)

Hi
To be on the safe side we could launch from the houghs neck public boat ramp which is "tide safe" then take the gut out to George's and Lovells and back via Rainsford. I will check out the beach today one hour after low tide to see how manageable it might be.
