a fast boat and a lovely all rounder

About myself


im an outdoor eduation instructor. i teach people how to kayak, climb etc and i love it.

Test


i have tested this boat on river running, big surf, small surf, play waves and drop running.

On river running and drop running it's not the best boat being that its not designed for that in the first place with its low volume on the back and only marginaly better on the front. the tail sinks if the user is too heavy and is prone to bending in big stoppers. in the area of surf in plastic boats its one i wouldnt be without. its rails give it the ability to glide so close to the shoulder of the wave and survive some huge dumping surf with ease.

Conclusion


A fast boat a little slow to turn but a great playboat.
