I purchased the 14' model this past week after doing quite a bit of research. I was very scepticle because the prices seemed too low. Anyway, I just went down the Bruneau River this weekend at 780 CFS in Idaho and let me tell you, I couldn't have been more impressed! This river is REMOTE and we only had 2 rafts so I was very concerned about getting into trouble. Hit very bony water with lot's of class III and IV rapids. Slammed into a canyon wall at one point due to some poor judgement and was sure we were going to be patching. Made it out and the saturn ran very similar to my old Maravia. My Marivia does seem a little lighter on the water with my frame. The boat tracked well and took a moderate beating. Have and will definitely recommend to anyone who asks. Hope this helps.
