As bigger ocean race canoes always take some water in by
the paddling activity, Ken was asked to provide a solution to
get rid of the water during the race without electric power.

He invented a vaka water sucker that is operated by one of the
paddlers by a simple foot pedal. Using this light mechanical unit
the water level in the vaka manages to stay under 1 centimeter.

Reduced unit price 430 NZD + VAT for Rarotonga Paddle Clubs.
Overseas export price is 480 NZD + freight. (Min. order size 5)
Upwind Fiberglass Etc. is a Composite Engineering Company.
