Excellent for a beginner or occasional paddler

The Dagger Zydeco 9.0 is a pretty good boat. i recently bought one and im pretty pleased with it, its forgiving, easy to paddle and turn, and pretty stable although i did manage to flip it on a class 2 rapid on the chattahochee river. the day after i bought it my friend and i did a 13 mile trip down the hooch (Starting at the lake lanier dam and going all the way to abbots bridge) it did great i was very pleased with the boat. however there is room for improvement, the seat back is pretty cheap and its hard to get really confortable on. also the way the bow is designed it tends to push the water out of the way instead of cut through it as a result its not quite as fast as my friends Old Town loon 120. the zydeco handles rapids pretty well although ive only had it in a class 2 but it was very stable where the old town barely made it. overall its a good boat for a great value check it out.
