Nice boat, but...

What I like about the boat:

• it is very light and easy to carry even for a rather small woman
• quite fast on flat water
• good fit for smaller paddlers especially on the sides

What I don't like about this boat:

• needs active paddling, otherwise you will go for a swim
• no reliable straight run
• easy to roll

My boat is a first generation Eskimo Kendo with cloth grips and a samurai fighter painted on it.
