Just added it to my little fleet of inflatables. Love it. It's a beautiful red, the cockpit is roomy and comfortable with plenty of storage in back and up front although anything you put behind the seat better be something you don't need to access while on the water.
There's Bungee storage on both front and back of the boat.
The boat is high pressure and that makes for both a stiff bow and stern which cuts through the water quite well. I feel it performs as well as my Wilderness Syestems Tarpon. I'm not sure how it stacks up next to a touring kayak, but it handled well on the lake and I'm very happy with it's performance. It has a coaming that is compatable with a spray skirt and comes with it's own spray skirt which is the prime reason I bought it so I can do a little cool weather kayaking and neither my Advanced Elements Ultralite or my Firefly have the coaming for a spray skirt. It does have a couple of cons. It's pretty long up front and the comapny provides a foot brace that is a joke. It's the size of a sponge. I used a inflatable kayak seat to stuff in the bow which made it comfy. Also it doesn't come with a storage bag like most inflatable companies provide. I had to buy one myself. Although it's not a real big issue, I find the front and back zippers useless. I'm not even sure what they are there for. The back one doesn't help in acccessing the storage area very well, It's just easier to reach behind the seat. Other then those somewhat insignificent issues, I really love my new Innova as much all my Advanced Elements kayaks and I really love those. It was a great buy as I got it on sale but even not on sale, I'd really recommend it. I'd had given it a 5 star rating if the company had provided a storage bag.
