The Cruiser caught my eye because it was of the popular "Pack" boat design, but also had slimmed Tumblehome, or narrower gunnel compared to the overall width, allowing for easier paddling. Also, it is super lightweight at just a bit over 20lbs. The boat tracks wonderfully, despite being the shorter of the Cruiser family. It is stable, too. I was able to speak to the owner of Swift in person who assisted me in my choice. Well made, great reputation, lightweight, and easy to paddle. Recommended.
