Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated
: Choosing a design to build is difficult when you don't get to
: paddle the boats. It took me several months to decide on a boat
: to build, I went with the Redfish King. I really like this boat,
: it is quite fast, it really seems to handle the gulf coast chop
: we have here very well, and since it is a west coast design I am
: sure it handles big water just as well. This boat tracks great,
: and carved turns are very easy. And even with the small waves I
: have taken it in, the boat surfs, I would love to get it out to
: the west coast. I see no need for a rudder, but it does exhibit
: some, but not a lot, weather cocking, but that is not
: necessarily a bad thing. Im 5' 11 and 165, and the boat fits me
: great. If it is a smaller boat that you want, I would consider
: the Redfish Golden, I think it is a similar design in a boat
: that is not quite as long.
