	Okay, so here's my story... 95% paddle rig for day trips.  Usually 4-5 plus guide.  Occaisonally R2-R4 with strong paddlers.  Mostly class 3-4 water with occaisional harder stuff. I have experience in 16' D-bow Aire's and love them...very sporty feeling, but heavy.   I'm thinking that a 13-14' SOTAR is the answer...stiff, fast, sporty, light.  I'm worried that the AIRE SDPuma is too narrow, though probably fun and rowdy. If someone wants to explain drop stitch vs others, that would be great. Overall, I want to buy the boat that feels most high performance in terms of turning, acceleration, spinning, stiffness.

drop stitch vs I-beam... EricS New

Only one thing I'd add..... arrmike New

I agree. Have slipped more than a few times under a thwart or even worse a drybox... EricS New

Yep, I've been in a textured thwarted maravia.  Sounds like a good idea. arrmike New
