Went for a test drive in my new Mini-Benny the other day.It is not varnished yet, I am just washing off the amine blush. I think I am too heavy ,95KG, for the little boat but it handles very nicely, tracks ok and turns easily, steers nicely by edging. I havn't tried it in the surf yet, I think I will get a more experienced friend to try that.Weighs only 10KG,and is a joy to lift on and off the car and down to the water. One very nice little play boat, just the second one in the world according to Dwayne.
