N I C E boat!!!

[@danielratapu3436]

Which is better for the heavier paddler?

[@davidGrainger]

Sounds like the same difference between some of the longer 21' Surfskis (Epic V10, Fenn Elite, etc) and the 18'6" Nelo 560 which feels much livelier on waves.

[@Lehmann108]

I've spent a few hours on this boat on flat water and she is really sweet! I'm 210 by the way.

Is this the shortest [length] canoe? Would the ama be shorter as well?

[@subliminallyinc]

Is this canoe suitable for someone weighing in at 200-220 lbs?

[@millcb1]

I've got a buddy who weighs in at 230 and this is his canoe of choice. I'm at 195, and it seems perfect.

[@subliminallyinc]

@@millcb1 thanks for the response. tempted to "upgrade" from my antares.

[@StandUpPaddleSurfnet]

Yes. I’m 220+ and it was fine.
