Height1 is the inner height in front of the cockpit (cm), height2 aft.
Speed1 is touring pace in knots (what a "normal" paddler could
hope to maintain for a couple of hours), speed2 is top speed. Drag1 is
calculated resistance in 4 knop, drag2 in 5 knots (at nominal load capacity). Load is load capacity
in kg and volyme is litre. Inistab is initial stability and secstab is
secondary stability on a subjective scale, where 1 is very tippy and 5 is
very stable.
The speed numbers are the mean value from a number of tests with different paddlers - not everyone will reach them, while others may go faster.
