About the reviewer
Have been using a "river running playboat" for 2 years, running grade 3s and easy grade 4s. Have used the Nomad to take on harder grade 4s.Test environment
Grade 4 rivers around Scotland (and a bit in Wales).Review
I have not tried many creek boats, so this is just my take on it with out comparing it to its competitors.The boat is super stable and stays on top of the water well. It also seems to resurface well and is easy to controlled if you ever get slightly "back endered" in a stopper. This came in handy as it has taken me about 10 trips to get my boof decent- that said I was not used to paddling longer boat and now I have the hang of it, its not hard. The boat is quick and the outfitting is great. I have the 08 model so stern access is not a problem.
This boat narrows quite alot at the end and would not be great for anyone with really big feet or over 6 foot 2 or so as I do not have much room at the bottom.
Conclusion
Overall this boat has taken care of me well so far, it has also inspired confidence and I am willing to push my paddling in it.Review
