: I built both the Cirrus and the Cirrus LT, and think someone 173
: pounds would be happier in the regular Cirrus. The LT tracks too
: straight with that much weight - it doesn't carve turns well
: being lower in the water. I'm about 155 pounds and usually
: travel with about 10 pounds of gear and prefer the more playful

Thanks for your reply. If you do not mind, I have an addition question. I see that you have built and paddled an Expedition Sport.

Could you comment on an Expedition vs. an Expedition Sport for someone my size?
