Good

Easy boat for hard and easy rivers. Very good lateral stability in every situation. Easy to boof and control at medium-low speed.

Bad

The speed is the biggest problem of this boat. It is slow and if it get speed, it's hard to keep it straight. In big volumes the huge volume in the nose could be hard to control.
