I understand that this boat is the European version of the Drago Rossi Gangster. I have seen one but not paddled it.

some people have been enjoying it as a creek boat
go to the bottom of this archived blog page to see some photos of it running a local rapid here in the U.S.
totalwhitewaterfun.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html

and on this page, you'll see one that was converted to a C1 by a friend of mine who wanted something to do some light creeking in
totalwhitewaterfun.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
and towards the middle of the page are just some more photos of the boat

all of the demo Gangsters we have here in the U.S. are actually Idras. Same hull,just slightly different outfitting.

Sono Renzo Monelli, italiano, peso 67 Kg e sono alto mt. 1.63. Frequento sopratutto i fiumi appenninici di 3° se capita con passaggi di 4°. Possiedo una Idra Raimbow, versione italiana della gangster. Innanzitutto il materiale è veramente eccezionale e lavorato con estrema cura. L'allestimento è semplice ma facilmente regolabile.Il rapporto qualità/prezzo è ottimo.COME FUNZIONA. BENE. La prua è perfetta, la barca è precisa e molto sensibile, la maneggevolezza è fantastica. L'ingresso in morta è uno sparo. Bisogna solo fermare lo scarrocciamento una volta in morta. I traghetti sono veloci ed istintivi e la barca surfeggia bene garantendo divertimento. Inoltre è anche abbastanza leggera. L'unica particolarità è la coda un po' sensibile che deve portare a lavorare tutto avanti
