I'm in the market for a new boat. I presently have a Fun but I'm not doing hard core play boating anymore so I'm looking at going with a boat with more volume but one that I will still squirt. I have a creek boat but it makes the rapids too easy for me and and doesn't require me to stay on top of my technique. So what do you all recommend that you think might fit my needs?

Maybe an Axiom or a Braaap???

ditto on Tams, Reports are the Braap (enough A's?) is tough to squirt but is a fun boat for creeks. I paddled the Mullet recently and was impressed with the ease of squirting the stern despite the fact that it's basically a New Wave Sleek with a modern cockpit. the lack of an edge makes it not a boat I would really be into.

Either that or getting your hands on a RPM

Thanks Jed and Tams. I want the edges so I won't be going for an RPM. A friend is going to let me try out her Axiom so I'll see how that goes and move forward from there. The Braap isn't schedule to come out until June but the rebound to the surface for creeking looks amazing.
