Anyone familiar with the CD Caribou S ?
Anyone love or hate any other boats?

It's winter and I'm trying to make up a "short list".

Not particularly interested in volume.  I don't camp.
One year without a flush toilet, not to mention scorpions
cobras, bamboo vipers, leeches, lice, malaria and plague
sorta soured me on it.

The cockpit has to be big enough to sit in first and
slip my feet in afterward.

And the fewer moving parts the better.

I distrust magazine (any magazine) kayak reviews.  I don't
recall any of them ending in "don't get this boat".  The same
folks who submit boats for review do pay for ads.

All real opinions much appreciated.

Thanks
Bob
