This winter I have been building a Sea Tour (15 ft) from scratch and rebuilding a Sea Otter into a Sea Tour. The first boat was for a fried of mine. This past weekend I handed over the boat and we had a very short paddle (in what little water was not iced over). Wow... incredible boat. The initial and secondary stability are both incredible. Considering we were in deadly cold water, we didn't push it but it was a very nice boat. I can highly recommend this boat for anyone looking for a comfortable yet sporty boat. Very well done Tom.
On another note, the foam seat from spirit line is is super comfy too.

I don't have any pictures of this boat and now its 4 hours away. I will get a pic or two of mine when it gets skinned and coated.
