Default Beg. -> Int. WW boat for small person

Hi Kevin,
I'm 5'3", 125 lbs, and most boats just seem enormous to me. I'm
currently paddling a Dagger GT, which is still kinda big, but by moving
the seat all the way forward and the thigh braces all the way back it's
not too bad. The new WaveSport boats have nice outfitting for a small
person (except for those damnable foot bumps) but your GF might not like
the hull design (slow, wide....)
Good luck!

Hello,

Could anyone please recommend to me a good all around boat for my
girlfrend (115lbs, 5"0)? She's currently paddling a Pyranha Prozone
225, but finds that it's too slow and too advanced for learning how to
roll. She wants to be able to do some beginner whitewater, but doesn't
want a super long boat that's too hard to turn. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Kevin
