SBS Canoe

Hi all, :lol:

I am looking for pictures (and dimensions) of canoe used by British Special Boat Service (SBS), IIRC it is called Klepper (sp?) canoe.

Thanks in advance,
Aripin

This is probably close enough. Check out various SAS websites, Im sure you'll the Brit equivelant if this isnt the Klepper here. These are Australian SF Commandos

Any special forces using the Feathercraft kayaks rather than Kleppers?
(Aluminium/GRP frame vs. wooden frame of the Kleppers).
Those things are beast to assemble/disassemble before you get the knack of it.
