My point exactly
Posted by: sitka on Oct-09-12 6:03 PM (EST)

Reviews are only as good as the reviewer. That goes for any sort of review.

It is complex. I'm a class IV WW a complete novice surf kayaker and a skilled (though crazy to many) sea kayaker. What I review is going to biased by the conditions under which I test a boat and a whole host of other factors.
