Picked up a used RIP 12 this week, first ride out (pond) doesn't seem quite as stable as my Eagle Run but it's a great buy. Seat is nice and comfy, don't care for the rudder underneath and honestly can't tell a difference with it up or down. Picked it up for $200 and am very pleased for the price. Solid construction, at least 4 years old. Eagle Run would have a slight edge on this bad boy. Will try a river trip with it this weekend. If you find a used one, worth checking out.

Great kayak, I've used it on reservoirs and rivers. It's a bigger boat and can be hard to maneuver in a current. I add an extra seat cushion for longer trips.
