Why don't you check out www.dagger.com and www.wildernesssystems.com to
name
just two and research their touring and recreational boats. That should
help you with your choices.
As I mentioned in another post, I won't check out Dagger's site as a source
of primary information. Not knowing anything else about the boat, what is
written on their site at
http://dagger.com/product.asp?BoatTy...C&BoatID= 257
would lead one to believe that the boat tracks and is predictable for
beginners, neither of which proved to be the case with the boat in question.
I think I'll ask on here; the ng seems to have been a source of pretty
reliable information in other respects.
The fact that Dagger's site lists it among the whitewater kayaks didn't
suggest anything to you? As whitewater boats go, it's stable and
predictable. NO WW boat tracks well on fla****er, they are designed to
turn, not track.
I can understand that you and your friend are upset, but it's the
salesman's fault for misleading you, not Dagger's
