My opinion - go with the Romany. Disclaimer - I own one & love it. My husband owns one & he loves it, too. Lots of our friends have Romanys - the 16' boat is the Romany; the same boat at 18' is the Romany Explorer - Welsh boats from Nigel Dennis Kayaks. Actually, a lot of people we know are now buying the Explorer. It does go straighter faster, but it's harder to turn, and it's more boat than I think I need. It really is an expedition boat, with a lot of cargo space. Either boat, though, would be hard to outgrow. My .02.
