Just to benchmark
Posted by: mctec on Jan-30-13 8:32 AM (EST)

I'm 180 lbs, 5' 9" ... and I found the T-170 a little big and unwieldy. The T-165 is a much better fit for me. Seems more fun to paddle too.

Great Products from the Buyers' Guide:

EZ Launch™ Kayak & Canoe

Gedi Convertible Helmet

Kayak Carrier Kits

Kayak Motor Kit
