I was building boats and doing C and B class water in the yUK in K1's

Uh... what's all that mean? Are A, B, and C equivalent of class III through V over here?

until about 1980 when I stopped mainly due to a) Lack of time b) Lack of transport c) Lack of cash d) Lack of girlfriend who had dumped me in favour of a faster model who could do A class rivers with no effort

Sounds like a familiar story for stopping a lot of outdoor activities. Except the (d) part. Usually it's the gaining of girlfriends that hinder things like this. But glad to hear you got your revenge.

Hmm... any chance of adding a whitewater kayaking jaunt to the next Empeg meet?
