I own an Express and have paddled the Mariner II and the Romany Explorer in
tide rips and wind.  I also test paddled the Millenium in light wind and
swell.  I think that either the Romany or the Mariner II are far more
forgiving and easier to handle in conditions.  The Millenium had too much
windage.  It wasn't bad but could not compare to the other two.  IMHO.
