Best 2 boat Combination this year?

what 2 boats do you need this year to do everything - ?

it'd be great in one boat as well - but don't think that exists.

Ready to quit my Day job - !

Doesn't the Burn have a thermoform seat? Thermoform is for playboats, not creekers.If I am getting a new creeker you can bet it will have a rotomolded seat. Way stronger and takes bigger impacts. I think the Diesel started out with a thermoform seat and then realized it was "no bueno" and went with a roto seat. I could be wrong, it might be roto but I don't think it is. Nice looking boat though.

2 cents

one boat

I still believe in the 007 as a sick, small creeker .. I wouldnt run it over 2000 cfs anywhere though. I wish i had one to try here in Gunny at the WW park, Im betting, blind, that its performs as well as any other boat on the water there as well. As far as the topic goes, Im not too familiar with any new playboat. To tell you the truth, I think the Micro 240 is still the sweetest, sleekest creeker out there, compared to that, the other designs look like good ideas taken to extreme tolerances. I will not buy a creekboat with any sort of spin disk on it, tough rails are a plus but, below the waterline, the bow and stern absolutely must be convex.

Out here in Cali everything is freaking gushing right now...check out dreamflows.com almost everything is in the red.

Better go with a longer playboat and a creeker. I'm getting the Fluid Spice for the cranking, flooded "play runs" and sticking with my same creeker this year.

Anyone headed this way is going to have a tough time timing a trip, lots and lots of snow and we've almost had 90 degrees already. Will it cool??? More rain? Probably not...when is the 100 mark going to be hit? Anyway to anyone traveling this way good luck. How's 'rados pack?
