Vagabond....I've had plenty of experience with a local Decathlon on floats, AUW 20lbs...and the completely stock G26 yanks it around significantly better than scale. Appropriately propped, and with a decent aftermarket muffler, the G26 will not let you down, or your son, or your grandson...and so on, you get my poing right? These things have certainly earned the right to be tagged 'bulletproof' when properly cared for.
