I have to respond to the review: "had this boat for a couple of years and found it downright dangerous. It has a hard chine. In a moderate chop it felt highly unstable and would capsize quicker than a light switch. As a BCU Level 3 kayaker with a lot of sea experience let me warn you, do not buy this boat" Well, codswallop! I bought one second hand just to see how I got on & I have found it to be excellent. Been out a few times in quite 'exciting' sea conditions & not found it to be unstable at all, quite the opposite. I haven't capsized once, tracks really well, is quite fast and I really like it. FYI I'm 5' 11", nearer 15 stone, carry reasonable amount of kit in the kayak. I'm a Level 3 BCU (stick with the older time slot) kayak coach & a Level 4 (equiv) OC coach. I have a lot of WW experience and my sea kayaking experience is growing quickly! Brill first sea kayak would highly recommend.
