    Oh, I agree.....oh wait, I don't have mine anymore
    That is okay, I have all around it. I have the OLD H3 and the Outlaw.
    I do like the Bladderless.

    Now i just got to figure out if I want the old H3 or the new Esccape

    Have you seen the waters Dave floats?! Those covers are thick!
    Just like the upper end inflatable rafts.
    But, anything is possible.

    Bladderless toons, tubes are a lot stronger than canvas. I don't think I've ever seen a white water canvas raft.

    The oars are way too short for any real movement other than spinning. It is all trade-offs.
