Hi Lee

Isn't it wonderful that there so many choices? Not sure exactly how the Chesapeake, Merganser, and Cormorant compare exactly. I, too have not paddled a Merganser, and have only limited exposure to a Chesapeake. Obviously they are each different and one could really like each of them depending on what conditions, etc. one was paddling under at any given day. Guess that is a good reason to build all three :) . And it is certainly possible to do so for the price of one store bought yak! And while you are at it, grab something from Pygmy, too.

Keep building
Grant
