About the reviewer I have yet to get this craft on heavy water(IV-V) Test environment James River (Bent Creek to Columbia) (Balcony Falls to Snowden) Hollywood rapids, Richmond North River Middle River Too much flat water, some high water, some white water, with a little flooding... Review The Everest is flippin sweet! I'll start with the basics...

About the reviewer This is a boat review Test environment North, South, and Middle Rivers Last run rivers were at 2.5 feet very shitty others runs at 4'8" were nice and wet Review Holds vast amounts of frosty beverages without becoming too unstable. Tracking is ok unless your loaded to the gills, then the boat will do anything but a straight line. Cockpit: Large and open with foam stuff at knee contacts. The seat could use some improvements: like a deeper cup holder, a real back rest; not flimsy plastic. More Foam could not have hurt Foot pegs are nice, the adjustment is very simple There is room for fishing gear, beer, and other things like a can opener. the Drain plug is a nice plus Fairly stable, It wont turn on a dime, but it will do what you ask of it if and only if you ask it nicely. It Rolls like a sheet of plywood, but that more than likely operator error.. Conclusion Nice chunky boat, perfect for lazy weekend...
