Canoe / Kayak repair in Mayo

martyoo · 2012-02-14 21:37:56

Hi there, I found a canoe / kayak (don't know the difference) and want it cleaned up, possibly repaired and painted. Does anyone know someone who could do this in Mayo? Thanks.

Thanks Fergal. I am in Dublin at the moment but the next time I am home I will put up some pictures. I am going to give it to a friend so need to make sure it is safe before handing it over.

Not quite in your area, but this guy did a top notch job on my canoe, Frank Casey in Ardclough, Straffan. He works with fibre glass and various plastics, compunds etc. Did a smashing job and great value for money. Found his ad in the Buy & Sell & just this minute googled him, seems he fixes bikes too ... http://forum.epicmtb.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15686

Chap called Dave Glasgow based in Mayo (not sure where) who builds kayaks. I'm fairly sure he does repairs to. I'll PM his number if you'd like it.
