Paddled the Quantum back to back with the Pelican Trailblazer 100 today.

the Pelican had less initial stabilty, would rock when paddled, but secondary still good. The Quantum more stable both initially and secondary.

The Quantum has better tracking. The Pelican better acceleration and better glide after a stroke.

The Pelican is roomier and slightly more comfortable.

Id choose the Pelican over the Future Beach except that I need a stable and straight moving kayak for running scanning sonar.
