I have a Kialoa Lanikai for sale. Its size is 51 inch. It’s in good condition and while it has had a couple of small repairs they are only visible on close inspection and the shaft has been strengthened with some carbon.
I am happy for anyone interested to go for a paddle and try it out. Contact Jörn Scherzer on 021-1250997. $220 or nearest offer.
