My wife and I both own Seadart 14s and love them. They track well and though they feel a little tipsy neither of us have flipped over: We've used them on rivers, lakes in Arizona, California, and in the ocean in Mexico and around the Olympic peninsula. The only drawback is it's 63 lb. weight.

We are very happy with them. My wife bought hers 3 yrs ago and after using hers a few times I sold my Necky and bought a Seadart too. I´d give it a solid 8. We don´t go out on excursions of more than 3 to 4 days... and that's only a few times a year.

We own both a spike and a heritage seadart found the spike slower, but it is also 2' shorter than the seadart. my wife finds the spike a little too tippy compared to the seadart. I've used the spike in lakes,rivers,ocean and it's performed well. Turns on a dime. For me ,a lttle too wet for the Northwest for anything more than a few hours in any decent swell, but a dream in warm water. A little sidedrift when going cross current,but I don't have a rudder. no regrets in owning it. I 63 5'10" and 170lb
