Hi mate,

I've got a review here for you:
http://www.fluidkayaks.co.za/Junction_070906.htm

Yes, I am sponsored though... sorry :-)

I used to have a Necky Blunt so I can compare. Way easier to turn, more stable and better on big water. Speed is probably the same. Ferries in dodgy water is simple. Holes, well, holes are never cool in a creek boat but the fairly flat hull works better than a fully on displacement hull

The outfitting is very good. The thigh braces are good but I've added some foam to support the outside of the knee.

Access is easier to the stern than the Blunt and because the central pillar is plastic it is narrower and you'll fit in more gear. The front rib does not get in the way of your feet. It can be used as a step to get out in case of a vertical pin.
Any more questions, shoot.

Cheers
Adrian
