I'm following up on another R21 lead I saw in the classifieds and am curious to know more about the type. I saw some detailed pictures of the boat that was for sale in Louisiana, but wasn't able to make it down to seal the deal. Now that another one turned up, I am interested in hearing from owners past and present or other informed individuals.

1. What is the setup/breakdown times for a cat like this. I'm assuming at 11.5' it is too wide to just angle like a Tornado.

2. Could this be a good minimalist camper if one is used to a backpacker's economy?

3. Can a person singlehand this boat fairly easily?

4. What is the speed like on this cat? I guess I should check the #s.

Thanks,
