Depending on the mix of flat, you might be happier with a Viper 12. It has edges too, but not carried out to the ends like an Ocoee. Will be a faster boat than an Ocoee, Det., Viper 11. If you're in big water, will be drier than a Viper 11 as well. Not as snappy in the turns as an Ocoee, but no slou...

I've not owned a detonator, but I've paddled one a little bit. It's forgiving, fuller ends, drier. I've not paddled it on flat water...and I wouldn't want to. Agree the Viper would be a great choice - was just keeping it to his original options. If go anywhere, big water, durability, and possibly a ...

My opinion (and I don't paddle IV - V whitewater) is that the detonator is a much more forgiving boat than the Ocoee so you won't get punished for your mistakes The Ocoee, on the other hand, will make you learn what the water is doing, keep you on edge, and it will put you in the water if you not pa...

Awesomeness....when we get THERE maybe we could toot our own horns a little. For some strange reason, those that are there generally don't though. Hmmm.....

I owned an Ocoee (tweaked a bit) :D and absolutely loved it. It was a very wet boat and the bow would plow under a wave if you hit it dead on. Of course, the tweaking made that worse than factory (shortened thwarts 2" in front close to 3" in rear, couple inches trimmed from the top) and a stock Ocoe...

I think that in a more traditional hull design that is true, but in looking at the bottom of the boat in pics (look on the 5 page post and see the boats upside down on Craig's truck) it isn't a traditional design. It's not quite there, but it reminds me a little of a tri-hull design (power boats). I...
