note If you have a creekboat and you're familiar with how it handles, it's nice to have the volume on your first run New

However, people paddle the UY in all kinds of boats. You should probably take whatever boat you know you can make the moves in. Playboats tend to get backendered in a lot of spots there, but if you're not used to paddling creekboats or larger river runners, it might worse if you blow a lot of ferries and miss a lot of eddies because you're not used to paddling the boat. In my opinion (and that's all it is), a person needs to be solid on Class IV with a bomber roll - in whatever boat they're planning to take - and should have a knowledgeable guide for their first run on the UY. Then you will have fun rather than getting worked all over the place.
