Perception categorizes it as a "day touring" boat, a descriptive name that they seem to have made up. At 13.5' long it's likely going to be quite a workout if you want to paddle it a great distance. I'm sure that I won't be the first to suggest it but you may want to consider a Pygmy or CLC stitch-n-glue boat. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
