I have a single expedition and paddle it on lakes and slow flat rivers here in the middle of Canada. It is a nice fast boat tracks good and carries a good load, no problem for a week trip. Nick had some pictures of my boat on his site a few months ago but I haven't looked recently. Send a email if you want more info Gary
