Tom, That guy who was last in that 120 mile race was probably blaming his boat for his own deficiencies. I don't care if you have the fastest boat in the world, you aren't going to win any races in it unless you are a good paddler. A good paddler in a bad boat will out perform a bad paddler in a good boat any day. The most important performance feature is the not the kayak but rather the kayaker. A good boat only helps.
