This is probably mentioned somewhere but I'm too lazy to browse thru all the posts. I am looking for a boat but I'm 120lbs and 5'1" is there any advice?

You might want to let people know if you are beginner/advanced; what kind of paddling you have done/what type you want to do, etc. Answering questions like those in your post will help people help you. ;) Otherwise, you might get a touring boat as a recommendation when you were looking for a playboat. :2cents:

Right...thanx...I'm a beginner looking for a creeker. I've tried a LL Remix 47 and Bliss-stick scud. I liked the Remix but it seemed like too loose. I like the scud but I'm concerned about it being so small. I also tried a Perception method air and that was a nice boat just not a true creeker like I am looking for.

Java, Punk rocker, small solo, creeker 225, remix 59, lil' joe, Burn, ammo.... whatever you do just put 1-3'' of foam under your butt before you try the boat.
