Submitted: 07-14-2011 by Driven1 We actually returned this Kayak!
I bought this for my wife since the Equinox 10.4 was sold out at Costco. However, after being in the Equinox, the Rebel was awful. It is light which is nice, but the design makes it feel very top heavy, and quite unstable. I can sacrifice stability if the kayak seems fast, but this did not. I would recommend several other kayaks before this one.
In a nut shell: handles poorly, top heavy, unstable. The good is that it is lightweight and cheap. Also, I can't complain with the seat. We ended up picking up the FutureBeach Fusion 124, and are much happier. It has its cons, but overall much more stable and quick! |
