I have paddled that model many times. If I look at the water while  
paddling it I want to turn over. It seems to have a rather round  
bottom. I think that contributes to its poor secondary stability. As  
a point of reference I have owned a Pintail and and Avocet. I loved  
both of those boats by Valley. I recently took a Nordkapp out in  
lumpy water and thought it was fun and playful but you better pay  
attention until you get used to it. It was a nice boat overall.
