Pintail Without Quirks?
Posted by: Kudzu on Jan-08-13 2:13 PM (EST)

I have never paddled the Pintail but I kept hearing about how well it behaved in rougher conditions. Do you think it would be fair to say that boats like the Delphin and Alchemy have replaced the Pintail? That they maneuver well without the quirks?
