The Ride is a great boat and in a way I miss it. Wilderness makes a good boat but due to arthritis I need a seat that is more comfortable. You will find...IMHO.....that yaks with the lawn chair type seat are much more comfortable. I also own a Jackson Coosa for the rivers. It is a stable boat and very comfortable but nowhere near as stable as a Ride 115. FeelFree has the new Lure boat that is 36 inches wide with what looks like a great seat in it. I have stood in my Ride just to say I did it but as big as I am it is just not practical to say I would fish like that. Wilderness is coming out in a few months with a lawn chair type seat that will retro fit into the older Ride series. It looks very promising.
