Scott,

I built the Snowshoe 14, and my friend built two of the same model--one with her special ed class and another with her father. They're easy to build and suprisingly tough. My friend and I did the length of the AuSable River (5 days, 120 miles) last summer, she in the Airolite and I in my stripper, and I was struggling to keep up with her all the way! I'd say go for it. It's a fast and inexpensive way to get yourself on the water.
