Re: [Paddlewise] Sevylor Diveyak

My limited experience with inflatables has given me the impression that they
blow around a lot in any wind. Mind you, these were flat-bottomed boats but
I felt that the effort expended to simply get the things to a destination
was way out of proportion to what I was used to in a hard shell boat. I'm
sure that hull shape plays a big part in this but I'll be very interested in
hearing how Chuck likes this Sevylor after he's been out in it a few times.
