>>601237I kinda wish I'd got the Expedition sometimes. Haven't tried it but I could probably carry 60L of stuff on the smaller Advance Frame if I had to (maybe 15 behind the seat, 35 on the foredeck and 20 on the aft deck) but that would be awkward and catch more wind. If you're serious about camping with it then the Expedition has a lot more room behind the seat. More leg room too.
The smaller one packs smaller and lighter though, I can fit it and all my stuff in a 140L duffle with backpack straps and walk down to the water.
I got the backbone to go with mine, and I think it's worth the extra money, I can feel the difference in the boat's tracking and handling.
>Should I do it, or wait until after the winter?You might want to look at folders too before you rush into it, they're more expensive and take longer to set up but they'd hold more stuff.
