Submitted: 09-08-2008 by WeBobPisgah Just bought this kayak used, it paddles very well, track is very good. Does need broad paddle strokes to turn but not as difficult as I expected. I do wish is had another 2 inches in side height, my knees brace just at the cockpit rim, but is liveable.
Seat is lacking for long paddles. But the best of all is it is very stable and will keep up with rec-touring boats on paddle adventures. If you want to fish from it, it would work very well. You can stand to cast, but you need good balance specially as you sit back down...you must plop you butt down fast!
I bought as a tag along kayak for any friends who wish to paddle with us...
I would not purchase this boat new at retail price. |
