Seon thank you for the helpful videos you've made on the Valkyrie, much appreciated. 1) How would you describe the performance of the Valkyrie on flatwater rivers and lakes, and on coastal seas? I'm coming from a sea kayaking background, and my first use case is paddling it on coastal sea water within and around cities; second is calm rivers and lakes; third is whitewater to class II and III). 2) If you were to buy 2 different packrafts for more flexibility for my use cases, which two models would you suggest? (I know someone that uses one of the Alpacka tandem packrafts solo for paddling coastal waters for the longer length and better tracking).

🤙 thank you and sorry for the late reply. First of all, it is important to understand that the focus of Alpackaraft is on whitewater and that packrafts generally have major disadvantages on open water with a lot of wind or current. To your questions: 1. Even though the Valkyrie is probably the fastest packraft on flat water, it is not necessarily suitable for that. Of course you could use it for that, but its strengths are definitely in difficult whitewater and so it is rather oversized for your simple tours. WW-2+3 Trips would be perfect for the Valkyrie. 2. Difficult question. If I had to choose a boat, it would be the Expedition or the new Tango for 2 people. The Tango is the fastest packraft, but I wouldn't recommend paddling alone. Maybe even the Explorer 42 could be a simple option. It's a 1,5 Person boat. 😅 When I would buy two Packrafts, for sure my first choise would be the Valkyrie and then maybe a light boat like the Caribou for Bikerafting trips. Cheers
