Yea,

that or succumbing to pilot error...

Danny, no one boat will do everything.  A boat that is good at surfing, play and general (up to grade III+) river running will not, by definition, be much good for creeking (Dargle, Glenmacnass, Flesk etc).  And vice versa.  So ya gotta decide what you want to do more of.

Also bear in mind that these days, unlike a puppy, a boat IS only for Christmas and not for life and you will probably sell it on in a while, and so you should think about what you want to do more of for the next year or two.

Mostly though it comes down to the correct boat for you, not someone else.  And pretty colours of course.

kmck:
I will speak up for my own choice, seeing as I paddle with the club it means I will mostly, though there are exceptions,as such I choose a boat that has a bit of play but mostly a river runner
reason being thats what we do. Though according to Conor White its also good in surf so something to look forward too. As everyone here has said
where do you want to go for next year or two.
