A little more about myself and where I will be paddling. You already have my stats, so here is what I want in a little more detail. Basically I want more of a creek boat than a river runner. Play/rodeo isn't really my thing, and if it was I would probably just get a boat specifically for that. I live in virginia. I haven't had a chance to do anything gnarly yet; mostly because I haven't had the proper equipment. Low volume creeking is probably what I will mostly be doing but I want to be able to handle something Like the russell fork gorge.
With that in mind I don't want to be limited by pushy water, which was one of the reasons I had thought about the jefe because I had heard it didn't get pushed around much by big water (compared to other creek boats). While I mostly will be doing creeks the occasional run down the new river gorge would also be in the picture. That is where the /river runner comes in.
hopefully that wasn't chalk full of errors. I just got out of a final exam and I don't feel like proof reading.
thanks again jake.

 Based on that, don't limit yourself to a jefe or diesel. arrmike New
