You say that the stilletos are "supposedly" a ripoff of the thrillseeker.  I've paddled one of those on the lower yough and the foam floor was ripping from me bracing against it before I even got to swimmers rapid.  The floor in that thrillseeker had a bunch of holes cut in it about the size of barley pop cans and I was told that those were the foot rests, well they ripped outu pretty good.  The owner of the IK wasn't mad, he was planning on putting a new floor in it anyhow.  So what's the durability like for those floors?  I'm not against spending some $ for a boat, a Maverick (my personal fav so far) is like 1300 by the time you add in the thigh straps and footpegs.
