I bought the fusion 9', was within the correct weight range and found it to be a huge mistake. Lateral stability was nonexistant.
I have whitewater canoed for decades, and was switching over to kayaks, and thought this boat would be nice for the family. I really bought it with my wife in mind.
After just one trip, repeat once on the water, (one of the worst river runs I have ever had on The Hiwassee (primarilly class 2, one class 2+rapid), I sold it.
Since selling it, I discovered that the guy who bought it from me put it for sale after his one time in water, stating that he had "made a mistake" buying that boat. With in a couple of months it changed hands at least two other times.
I have a dagger mamba that I love, and had good success in a jackson hero & villian, so Im confidant that it was not my paddling skills that were lacking in that boat, it was simply the most unstable boat I have ever been in.

Rating: a real, true, SWEET hybrid boat. You really can take it anywhere... ww, surf, coastal paddles, inland lakes. Loves bony rivers w. a mix of rapids and flat stretches which is why I got it.
Skeg down it's a quick little car like a Mini. Skeg up it's a six speed tranny on a sports car. Skeg is easy to reach, big size & effective. My 3rd or 4th time out was 20+ miles of Class 2 river at flood stage this past April... wheeeeeeee is all I wanna say.
The hatch is really, not kinda, watertight. Really. Pyranha uses Kajaksport hatches, same as the ones used on very high end seakayaks. I have rocked n rolled this boat, driven home in downpours, and never even a teaspoon of water made it inside.
Rolls really nice, pivots, edges & planes: you think it, the Fusion does it.
Oh and the security lock is nice. The way things are these days.
At my size (5'3" 118 lbs) went for the S version w. Connect 30 outfitting and sprung for the optional 1 Liter storage POD up front.
As the Brits would say "Brilliant!"
