I have had my Adventure XL 139 for a couple of years now, and I think it is a very good boat. Seems to have real good stability and tracks well. I have mostly had it on class 1 and 2 in Southern Missouri, no whitewater (the boat isn't really made for whitewater anyway). My boat doesn't have the new cam locking hatches or the newly padded seat, but I guy I know bought one of the new ones and he says that they are a pretty good improvement.
