Hey all,

I was all set to pick up two Old Town Otter Rec. Kayaks, when an
unknown option came into play: A Coleman Ultimate 100. It is $20
cheaper per kayak, but it seems to have a number of features of the
more expensive kayaks (and looks just like a Perception Swifty). It has
a covered hatch and bungee cording on the bow and stern to hold gear
down. I figure this kayak is just a rebranded kayak from a regular
maker, again possibly Perception... Does anyone know? It is 10' and
41lbs. as opposed to the Otter's 9.5ft. which I like too.

Should I stick with the Otter, or go with this new option. I won't be
able to demo it, but I have demoed the Perception Swifty and really
liked it.

These are my final options so bringing up other/better options is out
of the question. But any help on these two is very much appreciated.

Thanks!
