## Ratings (Surfski Index estimates)
- Stability rated 5 out of 10 (traced hull, medium confidence).
- Speed rated 9 out of 10.

Modelled from this hull's traced beam and depth at its design weight. Medium confidence. Speed is our rating. Both are given at the hull's own design weight.

These ratings are Surfski Index estimates, worked out from published dimensions, traced hull shapes where we have them, and reviews. They are not supplied by the maker or timed on the water. How a ski feels depends on your weight, skill, set-up and the conditions, so use them to shortlist skis and paddle one before you buy. Method: https://surfskiindex.com/how-it-works/#limits

Evidence note: This band is based on a trace of this hull’s geometry. Qualitative context includes 6 linked sources.

## Paddler weight
Estimated sweet spot 79–92 kg, broader estimated guide 64–95 kg. An estimate from hull dimensions, not the designer's intended weight.

## Suits
Elite racing and downwind for heavier/taller paddlers; strong windy open-ocean conditions; more secondary stability makes rough-water edging and remounts easier than the SEA.

## Hull
Longer (6.3m against 6.195m) and 2.4cm wider than the SEA, with 110kg capacity against the SEA's 95kg, so it carries bigger paddlers. Low-volume cockpit, piercing bow, redesigned gunwales for a tighter catch, rounded keel and rockered stern.

## What works
- Elite speed with more forgiving stability than the SEA
- 110kg capacity and a 1.65-1.96m paddler range suit larger, taller paddlers
- RT-1 footboard, new ergonomic seat and highly adjustable foot tracks
- Lighter than the SEL in Alpha and Excel (10.7kg and 11.7kg)

## Trade-offs
- Elite racing ski, not for beginners or intermediates
- No Advantage layup, so the cheapest build is the Excel
- No Australian listing found
- Little independent review coverage so far

## Generations
- 2023-: Launched in March 2023 to replace the SEL in Stellar's range: a reworked hull at 20'8" (6.3m) x 17.25" (43.8cm) with a new low-volume cockpit, RT-1 3-point footboard, ergonomic seat for larger paddlers and redesigned gunwales for a tighter catch. Stellar compares it to a narrower, faster Falcon melded with the SEA.
