Just wanted to thank you for the amazing boat. I took it on a 200 km solo back country trip in the Everglades. It averaged about 15 km/hr with a 2.5 Suzuki and used about 1 L of gas per 20 km against 40 km/hr winds and 1 meter seas. Everyone who I ran into was amazed at both it’s performance and versatility (ie. Rowing rig). Thanks!
