whats the single flow fin like with the AI in single hull mode? Does it rock more than the OB, I could imagine so.
Is it effectively like having a higher gear? Expect having longer pedal shanks would offset this to some degree.
The AI in yak mode doesn't rock as much as the Outback, might be something to do with the substantially longer waterline?
The longer cranks make the single Flow Fin about as much work as Turbo Fins. So a slightly higher speed I suppose, but I haven't measured the speed and not sure how I would actually measure the difference in effort it takes to push the pedals. Plus the more I use it, the more I get used to it. It is funny dropping back to turbo fins, it feels like there is little resistance.
The yak range is not designed for flow fins, so there could be warranty issues. The steel cranks shouldn't make an issue.
