I think so, too. I may yet end up with one. I've had three boats,
currently in a Cobra SOT Expedition. I find it really hard to turn, but I
haven only been out in it 6 times, so a little practice and
experimentation with the rudder and leaning the boat may improve things.
I'm really not an open ocean adventurer having probably done half my
trips in the last 3 years on the Elkhorn Slough. I really like gliding
along and taking pictures of the birds and animals. Don't think one could
have a more comfortable stable platform for that than the Tribalance. As
I get older that looks more and more desireable.

You're welcome, do let me know if you get one, how you like it. I may end
up getting one in the so far futile effort to get my wife to try paddling
with me.
