Nice. It looks like similar construction and materials to our Czech made Innova inflatable kayak, even to coming in the same kind of drybag. I wonder if there isn't some connection there. The Innova's US distributor is at the Skagit airport industrial park between Anacortes and I-5.

One advantage in white water is the self bailing floor. However in flat water this is reported to be "wet" on simple paddling. So there is a trade off--this being better for white water river running, but maybe not so good for flat water, and dinghy use. Of course one always is concerned about durability with rocks and snags.
