Nemesis small info: will i fit? 5 Months, 3 Weeks ago Karma: 1
Im looking to buy a new a boat and ive been looking at the fluid nemesis small.
Problem is i dont know if i will fit in the small. Ive sat in it and i know i fit height wise but not so sure weight wise.

I way 66kg so if anyone else is about the same weight id love to know how well it paddles at that weight???

Hi,

I weigh a little more than you - at 69kg - and i paddle a small. It has been blown up a bit in the bow and stern to suit me better.
What sort of boating do you do and how old are you? I ask this because if you are still growing then a small might not be a good option.

Well im the tiniest bit over six foot at the moment and 17 years old, 18 in november.
Mainly low to medium volume playboating, nothing huge (not that big waters an option in the UK )

Well, i think it is touch n' go really. You might fill out and the boat will definately be too small, but only you would no that really.That said, have you sat in the boat? If its comfy and you've given it a try then there is no reason why you shouldn't go for it.

I'm 6' with size UK9 in a Salomon shoe and with the seat in the middle I can get in, but maybe for only 10 seconds as the pain was considerable (in the feet) as I tried to forced my way in. Moving the seat further back is not a good idea, in my books - at least not right to the back anyway. Granted, I weigh about 86kg, but I'm in a medium. If I was you, I'd get a medium. But try before you buy Hope that helps!

Yeh thats helpful. My feet go dead after 30 minutes in my boat at the moment and i thought the nemesis was pretty comfy.
Can always put in an over thruster if i need a few more gallons of volume so you lads at fluid can expect another sale soon (when i get the money )
