If you have experience with both old and new 8'10 Mana, info please.

I really love the look of the 2014 8'10, but they are not in our stores yet, so no hands on experience with the 2014.
I tried, but did not like the older version 8'10... but love my 9'5
The new 8'10 looks fantastic, from what I can see.

I have a chance to pick one up this week, but will not be able to demo.

I know the previous model was enough float & stability for me... how does the new one compare in that regard?
I do not know the volume of the 2013 Mana... if you know it... please include that

Thanks
