Doug and All, I took a look at that link. What I want to know is when kayak manufacturers are going to stop designing sea kayaks with so much stern rocker. I see stern rocker, and I see a weathercocking and broaching SOB with high a PO factor. It seems they are fine making their kayaks skeg or rudder dependent even for mild conditions. Is Mariner the only manufacturer to ever get it right?

A lot of "LV" versions of kayaks these days are just cut down models from the bigger sibling. It will be interesting to see if that is the route Tiderace goes. http://www.thomassondesign.com:80/post.aspx?id=1168453724 *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
