This is a great boat. I purchased it a year ago, and logged many miles over the past year. I've done lakes and rivers, and it takes it all like a champ. For its length, it's surprisingly quick, and tracks surprisingly well. The much celebrated seat absolutely lives up to the hype. It's really adjustable and really comfortable. I took my girlfriend out and she paddled the Pungo 105 and I paddled my older 10' pelican. Absolutely no comparison. The pungo blows it out of the water. It's faster, more comfortable, and it tracks better. All in addition to being more stable as well. The footpegs are easily adjustable while seated, which is a nice touch. Adjusting my feet can help keep me comfortable for longer without getting out. The redesigned dashboard is kinda gimmicky in my experience. The drybox wasn't 100% dry, and I don't trust cup holders in general on kayaks. I usually paddle without it, which makes for a big roomy cockpit. I'd highly recommend this boat to anyone.
