db,

The reviews stated seem to be on the mark imho.  For me, the more of a load I carry the better I've found the prism tracks (Probably true with all boats?).  She holds a good load for a solo....for those of us that like to take a lot of stuff on occasion. Also concerning the comments about how the load is placed prevail.  I've also shifted the load concerning if going into the wind or with it.  A bit of a pain...but... at least in my imagination...it's helped.

Glad you took your trip.  I opted out this year to see my brother in Seattle as we were way over due on catching up.

Waving at you from Seattle and congradts on making the trip.
