...doesn't exist - it so depends on the paddler and their waters, skill level, weather, and host of other factors.
For me, it's the VOLKSKAYAK - 17' LOA, 24" beam, stitch and glue ply/epoxy construction - a very stable, solid tracking hard-chined sea kayak. Suits me perfectly for the paddling I want to do - others will need boats with different characteristics for different purposes. And absolutely the last thing I look at is the price tag...all that tells you is how much money the owner used to have, or how much bigger the credit card balance is...
