Review

 
  The Ranger has a protective polyester (spelling) hull cover with two tracking fins on it. When the cover gets soaked there is an extra layer of water, adding bouyancy that really helps in the ride. Because of this, the boat more or less has a flat bottom like a hardshell kayak and can really fly across the water. I have kept up with hardshells before, though I am a strong paddler. It is much better than the regular Tahitis. The Ranger is relaxing. It also goes anywhere and you do not winch and fear a puncture when that unseen rock or tree stump snags the boat from below. I've done rapids and rivers with it and the boat cruises across the swells. It inflates and deflats in minutes. Like the Tahitis it can carry two. The Ranger is an excellent and versatile inflatable kayak/canoe, much better than the regular Tahitis.
