What is that, 8 feet or so? I figured you would have one of those tiny
ww boats.

In the context of whitewater boats, 8' is very long. If you look at the
first photo it the label on the hull reads "Pursuit 10" so it's likely 10'
long. In any case, this is rec.boats.paddle, not
rec.boats.paddle.only.boats.longer.than.16feet.all owed

John, did you have any particular motivation for that last comment?
'Cause...galt didn't say anything about 8' WW boats, he was giving an
eyeball estimate of a boat in a picture. And his reaction was very
reasonable, I thought. You can't always go by the number on the side of
boats. Ever seen a QCC 700?

Of course, a 10' Pursuit doesn't actually quite fit in a 240SX. My WW
boat, at 8' (Dagger Redline, imagine) might, though. And yes, the
current crop of those critters is in the sub 6' range.
