I rate this boat as a 10 for the total ownership experience. First, the ordering process; I did everything with FC through the Internet using emails. I must have exchanged 10 emails asking several questions. At the end, I called them for credit card info. Second, the waiting; I asked them to guarantee a delivery date 'cause I was going on vacation. The boat arrived 2 days before the promised date. Third, the assembly; Assembled the boat the same night I got it. It took a while but got it right. All parts fit nicely together. No misfit or misalignment, just an amazing piece of engineering. Fourth, the maiden voyage; When on Lake Ontario, the next night, it was a fabulous ride and fun. I car top the boat, no problem. Fifth, the long term enjoyment; I've paddled the boat close to twenty times in 6-7 weeks, logged close to 60 hours. The boat handles well, very stable. I find I can train safely with it even in 4-5 feet waves and 25+ kt winds. Sixth, the conclusion; You can't go wrong. As Ralph Diaz mentions in is book, this boat could be the best all-around folding boat due to its size, ease of use, stability, etc. It is fast enough
