BoatBanter.com - View Single Post - Comparison: Wavesport Super EZ and Necky Bliss

The Bliss is 8.0' to the 7.0' for the Wavesport. How will they compare in
river running and at the ocean? The longer boat will track, I guess, and the
shorter one is better for tricks? What are the other differences, say in the
rails and how they carve turns? Which is "friendlier" for someone used to an
ocean boat? Both are for bigger paddlers, they say. I am 5'-10" and 220 lbs.

PS: the Necky kayaks I and my GF have paddled are generally a lot
heavier than other brands' kayaks. I just had a look at the Necky
site, and the 43 lbs (~20 kg) weight of that boat would sure make me
think twice about it. A normal weight for nowadays playboats is more
like 30 lbs (~14 to 15 kg), which is what my Quadro and Flip Stick
weigh.

Look at the possibilities, don't worry about the limitations.
