I haven't paddled one, but from everything I have read I am surprised to hear the Guillemot being recommended. I would expect most novice paddlers looking for an easy paddle would want a boat with some degree of positive tracking, which I believe the Guillemot does not have, unless they want to work hard and progress quickly.

Others may disagree ;-)
