I recently got a chance to paddle an RTM DISCO. They are sold by the good folks at Masthead sailing and a few other dealers in the states. At about 230 pounds I am over the ideal weight for this boat but it handled just fine. It turns well, is very comfortable, and is pretty fast as far as rec boats go. I think it would handle twisty creeks and crowded cypress swamps really well. I cannot wait to get one out in the surf.
If the bow doesn't bury on every wave, I suspect that I will be able to get down to just two boats for everything. I'd use the Cobra Expedition for tripping, fast days, or long paddles and I could use an RTM DISCO FOR EVERYTHIG ELSE!
