In Response To: Seeking: Fast straight line touring (FShark)

I was hoping to get some advice. I am looking for a fast touring boat for long distance straight line paddling in relatively calm water. (typically Chesapeake Bay 3 foot chop)

My Outer Island seems easy to slip through the miles and it regularly passes my hundred paddle strokes with my eyes shut test for straight line deviation of less than 45 degrees.A good test for your willingness to trust your senses.Enough stowage,if your efficient and minimal.
