Wee Lassie

I picked up my Wee Lassie in November of 21. There is a learning curve to entry and I would like to know if other folks enter their boat as shown in the video on the slipstream watercraft website, that is, face out from the boat and drop your butt into the seat, then swing legs over into the boat.

with my previous kayak, I could step one foot into the boat and lower myself into the seat, but my understanding is that I shouldn't do it this way in the Lassie.

I'd appreciate any input.

I have a 2019 hybrid Wee Lassie made of Innegra/Kevlar/Carbon, with "internal scratch pads" reinforcement (virtually unnoticeable). At this point I've paddled (and shouldered) my Wee Lassie weekly for 4 months, mostly using a kayak paddle but sometimes with a short, bent blade canoe paddle. The Wee Lassie is everything I had hoped--basic with not an ounce of extra "fat", nicely made, handsome, extremely light and portable, fun to paddle and to fish from, and it tracks well and is fast relative to it's size. I very highly recommend it!
