Whitewater Forum : Tuna opinions	Author: runawayjim Subject: Tuna opinions Posted: 09 Nov 2015 at 11:04pm Anybody own a Waka Tuna? There is another shipment coming to the US in Jan and I'm wondering what people think of the plastic, outfitting, and overall quality considering a warranty replacement seems pretty unlikely. Design seems pretty sweet, although I have yet to paddle one.	Professor Paddle	Washington, Oregon and vicinity

Whitewater Forum : Tuna opinions	Author: mikenash Subject: Tuna opinions Posted: 10 Nov 2015 at 10:10am I owned a waka tuna for a few months.The first few lowish water runs I absolutely loved it but it has its cons also. Outfitting is outstanding and plastic seems bomber. I have been paddling a zet Raptor for a few years so as I am used to that boat I will and can only compare it to the raptor. I did paddle a burn for 4 years and the transition to the raptor took some time also. Pros; Tuna is fast holds a line well, manouverable and much easier to correct with a sweep stroke than the raptor as it has a little more rocker. It also boofs well because of this, easier than the raptor. It has a much more upturned bow which keeps the bow up and dry without having to work for it, also helps it accelerate out of drops. Cons It is 7 pnds heavier than the raptor. Not that it is heavy compared to other boats, just that zet boats are super light. Cockpit around knees is high and wide. a smaller paddler will really notice this. the high cocpit at the knees also makes it harder to roll than the raptor, requiring more effort to overcome this boyancy. although it is 80 gallons it doesnt have much bouyancy in the stern.and the aggressive rails back there make it a bit grabby. especially in burly water. To overcome this you need to stay way forward, paddle aggressively and fast. As long as you are moving fast it is not a problem. cruising down a burly rapid will likely get you flipped. Also I cant imagine paddling it loaded. My next boat is going to be the Zet Toro. Looks like the cons of the raptor have been mitigated in the Toro. Fingers crossed. Hope this helps, and remember this is only my opinion/comparison.	Professor Paddle	Washington, Oregon and vicinity
