I am new to kayaking. I did a sea kayak tour a year ago. And after some research I bought a Focus 155. I bought it because I am a larger kayaker. I was worried about stability more than anything. At first this kayak dumped me a lot. But after taking a class and a fair amount of practice. I am learning how to stabilize this kayak. And the boat and I are getting along much better. I did add sponsons to the boat. But I hardly ever use them. I figure that I could use them if I get into ruff water.

The only down side to this boat is that the seat strap retainers will creep and I have to readjust the height of the seat bottom all the time. Otherwise it's been a good boat.
