G"Day Dave, Doug and Paddlewise, Thanks for the feedback on the Nordkaap, Avocet, Anas Acuta and Aquanaut and sorry the reply is a bit late. I was down with a seasonal flu, not the swine variety. We were also impressed with he build quality of the boats (haven't seen the Anas Acuta yet). Once I had sent Dave's link it looked as if the Anas Acuta was becoming a front runner but on hearing Doug's description of the Nordkaap and how it required the paddler to take care of themselves, Dee said "Thats exactly what I need". Of course there's nothing like actually trying a boat out in challenging conditions. But hearing the feedback was motivating and interesting. Might even consider getting one of them myself! But then I'd have to get rid of the Pittarak - sacrilege! All the best, PeterO *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
