Just picked up a sawyer oscada solo 13 for cheap. It seems to have been slightly modified to a bench seat, all of the pics descriptions I found online described a tractor seat. My question is does anyone have specs for this boat, and what you know about it? Specifically beam information? Im concerned the current seat is a little wider than stock.

Look through his photo album - I think he photographed some and put them there.

Oscada from HansSolo's album from 1984 that shows a bench seat. His album is a great resource.

Looks like a cool boat. I'd love to have a 13' good solo like that. It would fit inside my wife's 14' rowing skiff and be fun to paddle.

Thanks, exactly what I was looking for. Looks like this boat is supposed to be pretty wide, from the pictures it looks like I'm just missing the tractor seat and have been left with the two factory aluminum supports, just gotta track down a seat and I'll be good to go. Anyone know if wenonah tractor seats close enough in size to work with a little modification, I'm not likely to run across any Sawyer seats?

there's one for sale on Madison CL, some pretty good pics in the add that might give a feel for the boat, looks like fun, a DY design which is usually a good thing.
