Stern is a little too thick, which makes it difficult to do stern pivots. The rails on the bottom of the hull really lock it into the line, its not a forgiving boat. As above under pros, you have to be very precise with boat angle and lean. The hull is a little too flat and wide just behind the cockpit, and at the end of the stern, making it quite a lot of effort to lean or edge the boat; you really have to pull up with your knee hard to get the boat to lean. It seems like the stern really doesn't match with the relatively narrow bow; its almost like two different boats were put together. Although I like the blow-molded plastic, it seems like there is way too much thickness around the cockpit area; overall it is really heavy. This makes it difficult to accelerate.
