I have now owned this boat for a number of years now and it has been great. I am a bigger guy at 6' 220lbs, and live in Boston, so having enough room for a boat that will fit me comfortably and still fit in my apartment has always been a challenge that this one met pretty well. Its been fantastic on trips out to the harbor islands as well as on lakes/rivers. Just an overall great boat.
Either setup as a single, or two person this boat has performed excellently out in Boston harbor. You definitely need to use a kayak seat/backrest setup if you want to be out for more than a 1/2 hour or so at a time, but just for playing around on the beach and in the surf it's great.
