I agree with Derrick about how snug the full size Cetus is. My Quest LV cockpit feels huge in comparison. Both Ceti responded superbly to edging and even in very windy (flat water) conditions would very nearly do 360s on a single bow rudder. I didn't find the Cetus LV any more manoeuvrable than the Cetus but I did have to squeeze myself in. I didn't remove the foam seat cover which is the first thing I would do if it was my boat. I think the LV is really for small er paddlers who want a decent fit rather than for big paddlers wanting more manoeuvrability. I don't thing I have ever been in such a manouverable big boat as the Cetus. Tried the Cetus LV back to back with the Cetus at the Skye Symposium last weekend.

I was surprised how snug the full volume Cetus is, the LV may be really, really tight. That coming from someone who thinks an Anas Acuta have a tighter fit.
