No other boat offers this combination of hull speed, stability, roominess, and all-around performance.

I've always liked the Response, but after paddling, dragging, pushing and carrying one across the Arctic's Baffin Island, down and UP rivers for more than 300 miles, I've come to admire it all the more. It's dependability and versatility are unmatched. This boat can swallow the gear (our Baffin trip lasted 22 days and when packed our boats weighed almost 100 lbs.) and yet maintain its maneuverability. It handles big water as well as small. I can teach out of it, put a beginner in it and later go down to the local play hole to do spinners and get booming enders.
