Main use: playboat, river runner
Perception's take:
very forgiving, all-around performance playboats to fit just about everyone. The all-river play concept takes on a new level of refinement and comfort with the Blaze series. Loose and slicy for playboating but comfortable, forgiving and fast for river-running. A modern clasic designed by Rob Kelly and David Maughan.

(enjoys mostly river running and rates this boat 8 /10) |
| pros: | A great boat for bigger guys who don't have many options. I'm 6'3, 230... my legs are a good part of my height so I don't fit in many boats other 6'3 guys can get in. The boat fit nice, was forgiving, loose, playful... but definately not a playboat. Great step up for guys like myself who have been trapped in an RPM Max. |
| cons: | Still tight in the foot department. My size 12 feet were pretty cramped, even with the seat all the way back. Also, the boat is a little deep and takes some getting used to. |
