JD,

We have a 10 ft and a 14 ft inflatable SUP from Tower. I much prefer the 14 ft one, when paddling it goes very straight. I can paddle several times on the same side and it just goes straight. The 10 ft one turns with every stroke. I've carried two passengers and myself on the 14 footer. I don't have experience with a Jimmy Stykes model but I would consider a longer one.
