These baidarkas are very well behaved in regard to directional stability. They are especially kind in very rough conditions.

Anyone who has doubts needs to try one.


Et- You have a pretty big 'fleet' of boats (??).
Can you comment on the pros/cons of each?

if you were heading out for a day of 'rock gardening' - playing in rough conditions around rocks and caves, which would you choose?

For a long day paddle in changing wind conditions?

For a multi-day trip where you were carrying all your drinking water?

For a rolling class?

For a kayak rescues techniques class?

For leading a group of less experienced paddlers where you might need to rescue or help somebody?

Thanks
John
