The vice president and I paddle 14? Perception Carolina kayaks. Bulk heads fore and aft for flotation and camping gear with a proven haul design. Having paddled white water, kevlar solo and an Old Town canoe, since 1990, I made the switch last year after much research. My experience is that paddling solo became much easier, faster and a whole lot more convenient. The longer and narrower the boat the faster it will be, but less stable, although Mike does stand in his and I fish from mine. It is very hard to find this boat used. You are free to try it anytime.
