Anyone interested in getting into blokarting?

I've put mine up for sale.

Pretty tidy except for a little repair work on the sail. Still sails pretty good. Kart is in really good condition.
I've got a new addition to the garage coming so I need some readies. ;)

Bloody good fun! I have access to a few that I can hire out for $45 a day - I've only used them twice but I had a blast! Good fun getting it up on two wheels, or sneaking up on people at about 40kmh as you get blown down Muriwai Beach by a really strong Westerly!

If I had the spare dosh I'd buy one.

i won a blokart through a cereal competition, unfortunately only a couple days earlier my wife had told me we had to go to sydney and i had to sell it :(

never got it out of the box, and sold it for a decent amount so in that regard i cant complain ... but damned if Oreti Beach aint the best place to own one, get a twinge of sadness everytime i go to the beach now thinking about what could have been ...

anyways if anyone has had the slightest inclination to give this Blokarting thing a go, do eeeeet!

I've always wanted to build a stand-up type version closer to a real windsurfer instead of a yacht. More involving. Build a board and put the old windsurfer sail on it.

A mate of mine used to race these things. Bloody good fun. Should buy one for "team building equipment" for the company ;)
