Where it all started (modern edition, the fiberglass Scupper - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

PAL · 02-15-2014, 11:26 AM

Guys, I have a line on a fiberglass Scupper, likely just the 10th ever made. This classic has been gathering dust for a decade. I'd like to get it salty and maybe even slimy for a Kayak Fish Magazine story.

I'm looking for a test pilot. The boat was born in Malibu. I'd like to take it there, but I'm open to alternatives. Anyone interested? It should be someone who appreciates the history. Hit me up by PM.

He would have been perfect - I've seen old-school pictures of Mike in an ancient Scupper. I asked. He had to take a pass. This is a skinny man's boat.
