model 8.1 from 65 to 75 kg,

Good

The mamba is an easy boat to start with. It's indicated for river under class IV. It could be considered a easy boat to start with since it's stable and quite easy to direct.

Bad

The low profile nose, associated with the general low volume, do not permit hard creeking and doesn't help in difficult water. The hull is slow but stable and easy to direct. The design is quite old and there are more performing boat on market now.

The manoeuvrability is not better than many other similar boat and could be a bit hard on volume rivers.
