I bought my Cayuga 130 with rudder, a used boat, in May of 2014, it's a 2007 model. I live in metro Atlanta and there are many places to paddle. So far, I've only taken it on fairly calm water in large lakes, but have had a chance to test out the rudder in cross winds. I'm 6' and 184 pounds and the ergos fit me well. It has an older Extrasport seat, reasonably adjustable but not at nice as some of the current seats.

I can make pretty good speed and find edging turns and maneuvers to be easy. There is enough storage for an overnight trip (planned), and I can heft it myself in a high-carry if need be to get it to and from launch sites. I'm very happy with my kayak and look forward to many good years paddling.
