What is the Mohawk Shaman like to paddle?

If someone has experience with it, could they fill me in. I have paddled the Probe 12 and the Outrage, as well as the Ovation from that era. Stability, speed, manouverablity, etc. There is a used one for sale close by but I wouldn't get to try it. Thabnks.

Sunburst (1or 2) serial number SRA 1161 ?

I have found an old sunburst and am trying to determine it's vintage. It looks like a sunburst 2 to me but says sunburst on the logo. Any ideas? I have a picture but don't know how to post it here.

Outfitting a solo tandem for an adult and a child ....

for learning .... Which would be best, a Vertige or a Prodigy X? I though one main saddle just back of it's normal position for a 130lb person, and one just ahead of normal for a 55 lb person. The front saddle could be olne of those north water adjustable ones that straps in on lash strips. Cheers, ...
