What is the difference between the Acadia 11.5 and the Tribute 12... Novice kayaker - will I find the Tribute to be 'tippier' ?

Both are considered very stable and geared toward the recreational/novice paddler on flat water. Given the width and legth, both of these kayaks should handle very similar - but the Tribute will be slightly faster. The Tribute is also much lighter and easier to load on a vehicle or haul to the water.
