All I can tell you is I just took my ACA IDW and ICE, down at Sea Kayak GA, and there was an Instructor Trainer candidate that used a tempest (I think 17) part the time. The other part he used an Arctic Hawk. I do know that he liked the Tempest hands down in surf, and I'd guess based on his comments and how often he paddled it, he liked the Tempest in flat water better, too. Hope this helps. I know I didn't give you a lot of info. sorry. Thx, Richard T.
