You might try demoing the relatively new fiberglass Impex "Outer Island" - it is surprisingly similar to the original stripper "Outer Island" by Jay Babina. Gee, I wonder why?
: I have looked over the performance curves of the various Guillemot
: kayaks. The Night Huron and Petrel appear to be similar to each
: other. I am also trying to compare the Nick Schade kayaks to
: commercial versions. From what I can surmise, the Night Huron
: and the Petrel have similar stability characteristics to the
: P&H Scorpio that I tested last year and liked. I am
: surprised that there are not more comparisons made between the
: strip built kayak kits and the commercial sea kayaks. It would
: be so much easier to choose a plan if you had tried a boat with
: a similar characteristic. You can easily find a commercial kayak
: that is being demo’d by a kayak shop, but it is much harder to
: find a local example of a strip built kayak you are looking to
: build.
