I have an ODC816. Similar in dims to the Jetpack but slightly bulkier, heavier, and a tad more spacious.

I love it for what I do with it. Wish it had a vinyl coated bottom but I don't drag it over sharps so I'm okay (so far). Keeps the weight down though. 45 lbs or so.

The Colorado is a tank though. Opposite end of the weight spectrum.

I don't have the Colorado but i do have the Rogue. The only difference between the 2 are the pontoons storage pockets, and a transport wheel. The frames are exactly the same. I love my rogue. Yes does have some weight to it, but unless you are backpacking into the woods i don't think it makes any difference. It has a nice size heavy duty cargo rack that you can fit tons of gear on. I personally would not go with the colorado for 1 reason, it does not have a transport wheel. My Rogue and the Colorado XT do, so u you should check them out. They are both made by classic accessories.

As for the ODC i personally do not think i would like it. It is just to small only 8'. Im 6'1" 220lbs and i would not feel comfortable on it. I don't think i would have much room on it for me or my gear. If i wanted something for backpacking i would save alot of money and get a really nice tube for 100's less. Just my opinion.

i have the colorado and i use it to float the south fork of the snake its as tough as they come and can handle some rough water i dont use fins i use just my oars and row just like a drift boat pontoons are hard to fish out of on rivers im getting pretty descent with it but they can get you to some spots that you cant get to any other way and yes the colorado is a bruiser its a bit heavy but it makes for a smooth ride. and that site is way over priced i picked mine up at wallmart for 350.00.
