| - | Well here it is, close to mid nov, dark, cold,( but more wind)not very many post's,so I'm wondering , seeing that a lot of people are getting a least 2 boats, a 17" and a 19", which boat is overall, fastest in verious conditions, and which is best overall. Conditions would be :flat water:just white caps;3-4' waves (wind, it's all we get here) and 6-8' Gorge stuff. And then rebound nasties.Seems like we have experience in the Fenn XT Huiki R and Epic Sport, (fat boy) and the Think Eveo. Of course the lay up and overall weight will have a bearing also. I've paddled the R a little and the sport lot. The Think Evo once and never in the Fenn. So this winter I'll try to sort it out and check in later. DJ, I need to paddle one of your Fenn's and someone's R.I can say this about my lightweight sport, catches waves like crazy ,quicker than my V10 to jump on small waves. Stable as a rock except when suprised by a quartering wave from the rear.But overall in tough water I'm faster in the sport. But thats just me ,old and mid-pack with 3 years in and out of the saddle. | + | Well here it is, close to mid nov, dark, cold,( but more wind)not very many post's,so I'm wondering , seeing that a lot of people are getting a least 2 boats, a 17" and a 19", which boat is overall, fastest in serious conditions, and which is best overall.
