I have already posted that boat.
Just me, but I can see several things I don't care for.
1st. the multi piece construction (like the Day Tripper) are hard to get everything lined up and time consuming.
2nd. With the oars kicked out that far, I am betting LONGER oars would be required. It looks to be set up that the oars will be quite a ways apart and that is hard to row. Mine are set up, that when straight out they are about 6" to 8" apart in front of me.
3rd. Yes it is frameless, but the deck and the oars are solid.
The price is understandable, but I think is going to turn a few people away due to the fact it is basically a no name company.
Seat looks pretty comfortable.

[indent][left]That is interesting. Of course it would be better to talk to some one after they use it.
