When will these be available, and where can you buy them from?

They're just making the final tweaks to the design, because it is not as easy as just scaling down from the medium. They're want an optimal performance much like the medium is delivering now.
How big are you?
Because I used to paddle a small Flirt but now i paddle a medium Nemesis and the transition was very smooth.

It will be out round about the same time as the Small, if not a bit sooner because the demand for the large is slightly higher. I say all this but of coarse you never know in when things are ready in Africa:lol:

And then we have to wait untill they are shipped to Holland.
And knowing the trouble they had with the medium nemesis, add another 4 months to it :p

What is the main differance between the flirt and the nemesis?

The Nemesis is a high end freestyle machine, where as the Flirt is more of an all round, river running playboat. However, i have been pleasantly surprised with how capable it is on river runs. What sort of boat are you looking for and i'm sure we can find the right boat for you between the Nemesis, Flirt and Spice.

I was looking for a play boat, if i am about 5 foot, 8 inches would i be to big for the small nemesis?

That depends on how long your legs are. I'm 6 foot and fit into the small prototype that I tried. I'm quite flexible with my legs and they seem to be shorter than most people. Check it out here: adrian.playak.com/index.php?option=com_c...p;id=30&Itemid=5

Now I've got my own production version medium and love it. It would depend on how heavy you are too...

The medium is sweeeeet:

Granted we had almost no water there :pray: But the last few days we've had some rain :grin:
:D

Depending on how heavy you are, I would recommend you go for the Medium. I'm just under 5'8\" and weigh in at 70kg, and i fly in the medium with the extra bouyancy. I can handle it fine in flatwater too.
Adrian is a freak, too have fitted in the small prototype:grin: And if the medium is anything to go by the final production will be smaller than the protoype (boats tend to shrink a bit out of the mould).

Ther atchets on the bottom of the boat, are they for the back band?

Yup, that's what they're for... :D No more damaged spray decks and the seat itself moulds around them on the sides so you can stand on them when you climb into and out of your boat and you won't break them. ;)
