      It certainly tracks better when it's fully loaded. It's a bit of a pros and cons situation though because whilst it tracks straighter, it's also harder to turn, and, if you take the skeg out it becomes almost impossible to control, as you'll see 👍😁

      I'm glad you liked it Caz. I've done my best to show the scenery and some key points along the route as best I can. Is it too much? Too long? Or ok? In other words can you watch the whole thing without it seeming boring and wanting to skip?

    Karl, just a suggestion, i enjoy your videos . In fact you encouraged me to buy a Chelan 140 and a Deschutes, 130, I live in Oregon and have paddled on Lake Chelan and the famous Deschutes River.. BUT it gets hard for me to continually watch you just paddling down the stream from your point of view. Or looking into the camera. It needs more personal interest variety. I am also interested in shots of you paddling by, talking about your boats. I want to know more about your 2:57 , and imterviews with them, their backrounds. Interests, etc. Compare the various boats and their opinions too.Change it up a little. Give the camera to them some times. Give them more of a role. Just pull up stop paddling and interview them too. Talk about your equipment more. Compare your trips etc

      Thanks for the feedback, there are some interesting points there, some of which I can work with, and some not so much. For example, some of the group are happy to be in the background but that's it, that's all they want in terms of being on camera. Nevertheless as I say, I can work with some of your ideas 👍😁
