Mike - great addition to the silent auction...kudos for securing that, and kudos to Star for their support! Sweet!!!

but you'll never catch me complaining about too much of that southern rain.

I'm looking for a sit-on-top option for my daughter, 5'2", 105#. Would a Tomcat be too big?

I guess we know what Butch will be bidding on at Rendezvous, don't we?! ACC folks (including me) have bought a buncha rafts from Star over the last few years. I think it's great that they appreciate it enough to donate the IK to our River Conservation Silent Auction...

I don't think so, a tad bulky and heavy to lug around, but then are most hard body SOT's. and rec boats. Remember, this is not a class III or better boat. If daughter has regular serious whitewater intent, you would be wise to look upward to the Strike. (more $$, better build and more like a hardshell kayak) Not an expert here, but I think the Tomcat is certainly a very affordable and practical inflatable for beginners or intermediate paddlers, especially when purhased lightly used, as from Gravity Play. They use them for extreme races and then sell them. My second boat came from them. At the time, I think it cost $350. It came with original papers and box, very little evidence that it had ever been wet.
