: Still, it's much easier to attempt to recommend a boat to a paddler if you
: know what he/she's comfortable with.

Yep, you are right, Bill. His measurements are similar to mine without as much weight so I could see how well the WD choices could work. I most certainly wouldn't recommend Hans Friedel's Raven to him unless he mentioned that he likes to swim every day. Hee! Hee! I swam while paddling that one a few times but those days were fairly ideal: hot and the water clean.
