Lee, There has been a little hint that Pygmy should offer a medium volume kayak but whether it should be a smaller Coho or a completely new design is entirely up to the designer. Pygmy seems to spend a lot of time on R&D and testing before offering a new design. I think that is the best approach, rather than quickly offer a new boat without thorough testing. Who knows, maybe somebody, somewhere, right now is paddling a 17'long, 21"beam, 29"x16" cockpit, low rear deck, 34# Coho. ------------------ Larry
