: Depends on what you're used to paddling. Might take a look at the stability
: curves for your boat and the Mystery, they're not alot alike. The Razor
: Billed Auk is also quite quick and is a bit more stable.

: Bill H.

The RB Auk also appears to have a bit more rocker. I have corresponded with a couple of Mystery owners and whilst an awsome straight line speedster, turning is an issue. Even with a rudder, i imagine it would have a turning circle like the Queen Mary.

Perhaps a slightly stretched out RB Auk might be interseting.
