Has anyone paddled the new Perception Eclipse. I think it is a re-design of the venerable Sea Lion. My club is in the market for some plastic boats, with the primary requirements being... 1. Does not weathercock 2. Does not need a rudder or skeg to achieve #1 Our club has several old sea lions, which have been quite useful, but they do weathercock a little too much. I am hoping that the redesign has taken care of that problem. I would also be interested in any comments regarding the handling of the Perception Shadow, which appears to be a smaller SeaLion, more or less. And I would love to hear about any other plastic boats that meet the above requirements. Thanks a bunch, Kevin ___________________ / Kevin Whilden \ |Dept. of Geosciences \___ |University of Washington \ |kwhilden_at_u.washington.edu| \________________________/ *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.gasp-seakayak.net/paddlewise/ ***************************************************************************Received on Mon Oct 19 1998 - 12:08:33 PDT
