I have the 2021 Starboard Go Lite Tech and it has met all of my expectations. This is my first board, having used only rentals which are very stable. This is easy to transition to and paddling is a real pleasure. I've taken it on mostly calm lakes and inland coastal waters, occasionally with good bit of wind and it cut through he chop very well. It glides smoothly over the water and paddling straight is not difficult, I'm working on my strokes but I can do several on each side before switching. At 24.9 lb, the board is light enough to transport and carry with relative ease. I've not been able to locate the Starboard carry strap that screws into the board, but I haven't really needed one yet. It's a beautiful looking board and the padding is just comfortable enough to stand or kneel on, thought not super soft, but it will probably last longer because of that.
