Anyone out there paddle a Wilderness Systems Tempest 165 or 170 and prepared
to offer their thoughts on the boat?

I'm looking for a plastic boat, sans-rudder, to use for coaching. I normally
paddle a Nordkapp or an Arluk 1.8 and something smaller would be nice. I'm
70kgs and fairly competent (BCU Coach L4).

There is a 170 locally which I will demo, but any comments would be useful.

Cheers

JKA
