I have owned ll of these boats and the 1st and 2nd generation Ion. The 2nd generation carries more momentum than the first but either one has much, much less momentum than your Outrage or other boats listed. I preferred the first generation for drops and punching through holes but both do well creek...

Are you on FB? Harrison has one for sale.

Where are you?

NOC is the Nantahala Outdoor Center - the boats are in their shop at the Nantahala in NC

If you are on FB we have a group- Midweek Paddlers (Asheville area) and Western Carolina Paddlers. Most of us use these 2 groups to set up trips.
Welcome to Western NC.

I don't own any Millbrooks right now, but coming from the Prodigy X I think you would really like the Outrage. I have owned and paddled both of these. The 20/20 is another boat I think you would enjoy. The shorter boats such as the Shacho would not have the primary stability for entry and exit, but ...

The Superlite is floating me fine at 200 pounds. Very happy.

Here is a link to a review of the newly made Superlite Spanish Fly by Esquif.

There is a Silverbirch Covert 9.3 for sale only paddled twice with pump for sale and the same owner has a Option with pump, 3 years old for sale. He has had to stop paddling.

I put a 3 inch round tube in that location. It takes time with the saddle in place but doable. I use a knife. Once 3 inches of foam has been carved there is a Dewalt adapter you can buy to attach a hole saw for right angle use.

Whatever weight you are to use the Ion as a river runner means you will get some exercise. It is a short boat so not a lot of momentum. I paddled it down Clear Creek, Lilly to Nemo and had a blast. If you don't mind paddling a lot more than longer boats you can take it anywhere.

The boat is a blast. I had an original when my weight was higher than your range and loved it. I lost weight, bought a new one and it is also a fun play boat. The aluminum mold version has more momentum than the original but lost some primary stability. If you are looking for a fun, fun boat buy one...
