The boat isn't the most maneuverable, it isn't the fastest thing out there, nor the lightest... your friend is defending his purchase and would be probably performing better in a smaller 19'er.

...is it a GREAT boat for people who want to take long trips with a nice long efficient hull that tracks really well, has plenty of storage space, and feels safe on the water ... yes!
