JohnnyThao651 Posted July 10, 2013 Author Posted July 10, 2013 Thanks for the post! Never even knew that kayak had stabilizers available! Quote
Super User Darren. Posted July 10, 2013 Super User Posted July 10, 2013 Hi Johnny - since you're new, stop by the introductions forum and say hi! Are you looking to buy pre-made stabilizers or make your own? A couple of Scotty rod holders, some PVC and lobster pot buoys will make a fine stabilizer pair. That's how I used to rig my canoe, but now I've got a kayak that is stable enough to stand in. Quote
Super User Goose52 Posted July 10, 2013 Super User Posted July 10, 2013 These outriggers are from Spring Creek Outfitters. Quote
jimmykm21 Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 When I fished from a canoe I bought some but found it they really weren't needed if you buy the right canoe. I bought an old town discovery square stern 17 foot. That thing was stable enough to walk around in it. Had a 5 HP on the back with a side mounted trolling motor. Quote
JohnnyThao651 Posted July 11, 2013 Author Posted July 11, 2013 Yeah just looking for pre-made stabilizers, to custom ideas, I'm new to this site, never really joined a forum so yeah I'll go introduce in a bit here, but that Spring Creek Outfitter rig looks LEGIT! I don't a home yet, so don't have space for a boat or a vehicle to tow it so I'm more into the canoes, but just wondering what everyone haves on their kayak/canoe set up for stabilizers. Quote
Super User webertime Posted July 14, 2013 Super User Posted July 14, 2013 I've got the Spring Creek stabilizer and it's great. I can stand with no issues (6'5"). Worth it Quote
JohnnyThao651 Posted July 15, 2013 Author Posted July 15, 2013 Oh so they actually sell those pre made? I thought that rig was a shop's rig for show or something, how much was it? Quote
Super User Goose52 Posted July 15, 2013 Super User Posted July 15, 2013 Spring Creek outriggers come in several float styles and prices vary depending on the float selected and the width of the canoe. Visit their web site: Spring Creek Stabilizers Quote
bluezed Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 We just ordered the Spring Creek stabilizers that Goose52 posted. They are going on our Coleman Scanoe. Can't wait to try them out. Quote
