I don't quite know what to make of this, but it seems a little fragile compared to my Hobie Outback.  Any evaluations out there?

I have not tried it out yet but heard it's super fast. There looks to be a lot of moving parts compared to the Hobie MD so could be more breakable.

I saw one being demo'd this spring, but I didn't try it myself.  It looked pretty fast and easy to pedal.

The biggest downfall of the Native SOT/canoe hybrids is that, last I knew, they didn't have scupper holes for drainage.
