In Response To: Hull shape and crispness of leaned turns (Jan Gunnar Moe)

Oops - second posting - the first had the original message in it. Anyway - regarding crisp, leaned turns - a recent champ of that feature I just tried is the P&H Capella - I'm no Sea Kayaking expert (I have been doing it for 10 years), but I could very comfortably continue a 15' diameter circle in it. Nothing else I have paddled (in a full size sea kayak) has come close. Unfortunately, the Capella didn't have the speed I was looking for.
