Initial stability of this boat is good, secondary is more then I expected. Waves and wind seem to only play with the boat in rough condition. The boats capacity is ample for tripping and at times too much (why did I bring all this gear!).

I have found that by engaging my core on the paddle the boat seems to meet the specified 7 kph cruising speed with ease, getting there is a bit of a challenge.

Aggressive edging is not the forte of the boat but is a good coastal boat for the other reasons mentioned. The boats wider stance does impact speed and agility. It does make for a comfortable entry and exit even when practicing rescue and other techniques. Surf entries are effortless and I can get out of the boat quickly when landing. Plenty of room for my big frame (6 ft, 225 pounds)

Very pleased with this boat, my number on tripper.
