PS: Again, this is perhaps really a discussion about the two main

Pintail... Can't get more different!

Again, without knowing the actual speeds attainable in each kayak, it's
impossible to suggest an "in the middle" boat.

I'm not looking so much for model suggestions as attempting to provoke
a discussion about these seemingly divergent touring styles.

I was also trying to figure out what boat to use on this upcoming
trip. I'm going Pintail.
