A great boat! Being slightly claustrophobic and having to canoe alone, I needed a SOT kayak and tried the Scupper Pro TW (now purchased). The boat is very good at keeping a bearing, it is stable and absolutely not just some "recreational" boat. People here (I live on the bassin d'Arcachon use it to cross the bay (3-5km of open water as well as to go to the nearby banks (travel in the waves). The seat I purchased with is OK but only whithout its backpocket.There are two draw-backs to this boat: Firstly, it does not have a "child seat" where I could put my four year old girl. Secondly, it has no foam inside. i.e., if the hatch opens for some reason and water comes inside, there will be no reserve of flotability. I am working on it to better that. |
