Finished my first Skeena this spring and just got back from a 4 day float down the North Fork of the Flathead river in Montana (USA). Big water because of a wet spring, lots of class 2+ waves but the Skeena performed just as well as the Alpacas in the group. I believe this raft outperformed the Kokopelli Hornet-Lite rafts floating with us by sitting higher in the water and needing less bailing after big waves.
Thanks for great directions and a fun process of constructing this boat. Other than one small leak that developed in the seat (from poor heat sealing technique on my part), no issues with this beauty.
