The problem with most small fishing catarafts is that they are designed for mellow water and not really designed for true white water.The only thing between and cold swim is 1- you,re ability and 2 the quality of you're boat, their is big difference in the way some boats handle,frame design vary in all types the big diff is the tube design and the material they are made from .Have fun checking them out ,depending on the make you will be amazed at how responsive they are.For a 1 man boat I would'nt go smaller 10', 12' is a better size in my opion , 1 of the main problems is guys tend to overload their boats ,so in this case size does matter,a couple hundred lbs in capacity makes a big difference.Drop me ans e-mail I can answer more of you're ? good luck...
