| Southborough, MA Posts: 3 | I have both a 9 foot Waterskeeter for rivers and a Watermaster. the Watermaster is by far and away the best. After I bought one, 6 other friends also purchased one. You can find them at http://www.kickboat.com If I can figure out how to post a picture of us using them I will. Went down class 3 rapids on the Madison and Green without any problems. They also pack down to a backpack. Six of us packed them for trips with no additional cost on the airplane. I have also floated the East Outlet and the West Branch of the Penobscot with them. Truly outstanding. | |

| Fairbanks, AK Posts: 1122 | That watermaster does look pretty cool. I eventually want to get a small fishing kayak, instead of a pontoon, because I know I would want to use it on at least one river where inflatable craft aren't allowed (the Bois Brule in Wisconsin). | |
